Regional tourism promotion in Yamaguchi and Sanin

Overview

Tourism initiatives are being promoted across the Yamaguchi and Sanin regions of Japan through various collaborative campaigns and digital tools.

In Yamaguchi, the ‘Manpuku no Tabi: Oidemase Fuku no Kuni, Yamaguchi’ campaign is set to run from October to December. This initiative, involving the JR Group and local stakeholders, features the ‘Yamaguchi Fuku no Kuni Tour Pass’ available via the ‘tabiwa by WESTER’ app. The pass provides unlimited travel on JR lines within the prefecture and access to tourist sites such as Kintai Bridge, Iwakuni Castle, and Ruriko-ji Temple.

Further regional efforts include the ‘Ramen Festival in Sanin’, scheduled for November 6–8 in Matsue, Shimane Prefecture, with tickets sold through the ‘tabiwa’ app. Travelers are also combining Yamaguchi travel passes with car-sharing services to visit locations including Akiyoshidai, Tsunoshima Bridge, and the Hagi district.
