210 210 EVOCATIVE OF JAPAN The Man -Yo-Shu is the oldest existing collection of Japanese poetry, compiled in the late 8th century during Nara-Heian Periods. This particularly unique Japanese work can introduce you to the essence of beautiful nature in four seasons, inherited traditions and customs in daily life, and more things that are evocative of Japan. The Province of Izumo The Province of Houki The Province of Inaba Mt. Daisen Lake Shinji Iwami Kagura The clear blue sea, the sunset above the horizon, mountain landscapes that change color along with the seasons, and the sight of fishermen’s boats gathering clams with a rake in a lake are some of the scenes that moved ‘waka’ poets such as Hitomaro, Kadobe-no Okimi, Okura, and Yakamochi to create poems. People appreciate their old traditions like Iwami Kagura, a sacred dance and music dedicated to deities, and regional myths. They often visit shrines and temples when they reach milestones in their lives. There are many time-honored Japanese-style inns, homestays, and hotels available with heartfelt hospitality. You are very welcome to visit our Sanin Provinces and experience a distinct culture and atmosphere.

It includes 4,500 poems, starting with a poem written by Empress Nintoku in the 5th century and ending with a poem about a celebration of the New Year in 759 by Otomo-no Yakamochi, who is said to have compiled the collection. The collection also contains sad poems by a soldier who was sent to Kyushu to guard the area, poems describing the hard work by common people, and romantic poems, all of which are reflections of people’s sincere perspectives and desires. In those times, the provinces were also gateways to Japan from the eastern countries of Asia. They must have been regarded as important areas by the former central government of Japan. For that reason, the government officials sent there to govern the areas were carefully selected. Some of them assigned for the job were poets noted for their fine pieces in the Man-Yo-Shu, such as Ōtomo-no Yakamochi of the Province of Inaba, Yamanoue-no Okura of the Province of Houki, Kadobe-no Ōkimi of the Province of Izumo, and Kakinomoto-no Hitomaro of the Province of Iwami. They wrote ‘waka’ poems about their respective provinces and the people while they were in office, and these poems were finally included in the Man-Yo-Shu. Why not visit the places filled with the old spirit of Japan and feel the literary ambience of the Man-Yo-Shu? 001 001 001 Yurahime Shrine 001 001 Iwami-Tatamiga-Ura Katayama Tumulus Temple Ruins of Shimokou Toda Kakinomoto Shrine 375 Mt.

Mitokusan Located on the hills in the west of Kurayoshi City, there is still some ambience of the days of ‘Man-Yo’ in the scenery. Regarded as a sacred mountain opened in the Nara Era. The entire mountain is the precinct of three temples. The site of the office that governed the Province during the Nara, Heian, and Kamakura periods. Inaba Man-Yo History Museum O-u-no Umi Era-no Sato It is said that this was the birthplace of a young girl, called Yosami-no-Otome, whom Hitomaro fell in love with and with whom he would live. かきのもとの ひとまろ Mononobe Shrine It is said that this place was where the God Susanō and his wife Kushinada started their life as newlyweds.
