About us

An independent travel guide to Yamaguchi Prefecture, for travellers who want to plan a great trip to western Japan without the guesswork.

What we do

YamaguchiPrefecture.com helps you plan a visit to Yamaguchi Prefecture in western Japan. We cover Motonosumi Shrine, Tsunoshima Bridge, Kintaikyo Bridge, Akiyoshidai, Hagi, Shimonoseki and the hot springs, with tours, where to stay, how to get there, what to eat and when to go.

We are not an official website

Despite our name, we are not the Yamaguchi Prefectural Government, a city, town or village office, a tourism association, a shrine, or the managers of any attraction, park or transport service. For official information, public services, warnings and opening arrangements, please use the websites of those organisations.

We are not a tour operator

We do not run tours ourselves. We recommend tours run by local operators and sold through our booking partner, Viator.

How we choose tours

We recommend tours that are well reviewed, clearly described and fairly priced. We do not accept payment to feature or rank a tour.

How the site is funded

Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you book through them, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. This pays for the site and keeps it free to use. Read our affiliate disclosure for details.

Corrections

Opening times, prices, timetables and visiting rules change. If you spot something out of date, please let us know and we will fix it.
