宍道湖 

Lake Shinji

Shinji Lake, located to the west of Matsue City, is one of Japan's top 100 scenic spots, renowned especially for its stunning sunsets. As a brackish lake, it is home to a rich variety of seafood called the "Shinji Lake Seven Delicacies," including clams and sea bass, which are famous local specialties. In the evening, the silhouette of Yomegashima Island shining in the sunset creates a mesmerizing scene. Visitors can enjoy a sunset cruise on a pleasure boat or relax at lakeside cafes, providing an exquisite experience of healing and inspiration.
