What is Japan like here?&ldquo;Tottori Sand Dunes&rdquo; is a place where you can feel a little unbelievable otherworldly feeling.From the moment you climb the stairs from the visitor center and stand at the top, the world of sand and sea spreads out before you.The small shadows are other tourists, but I can&#39;t grasp the perspective, and I get the illusion that they exist far away (actually, they&#39;re not that far).If the wind blows, the sand will fly and sand may accumulate in the pockets of your shoes and clothes, so we recommend wearing boots and clothes that can be closed.Every time the wind blows, wind ripples are created and the footprints disappear.I thought the best view was in the evening when the sun was setting.One side is dyed orange, as if you are in a desert somewhere.It was really nice that it was sunny when we visited.Also, if you go first thing in the morning, you will see sand dunes with only wind ripples and no footprints.

It&#39;s really beautiful, the feeling of endless sight, plus it is more rural, so the air is very fresh, looking at the sand dunes, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, looking at the sea, there is a feeling of relaxation, very worth it with couples, or bring Bury the children

The first reaction of sand dunes + sea = Tottori. There are two ways to go up the sand dunes. You can choose a safer slope, or you can challenge the difficulty and walk on the straight &quot;cliff&quot;. I didn&#39;t expect it to be half desert and half sea. The sand dunes in winter are covered with thick snow, like a dreamy fairyland. When there is wind, you can see wind patterns and sand curtains!

It takes about 20 minutes to get to Tottori Sand Dunes Station from JR Tottori Station by bus. I came here specifically to see the scenery of the sea and the sand dunes.
You can buy a cable car ticket from the viewing platform to go down to the sand dunes for fun. The round-trip ticket is JPY300. The cable car is very simple. You stand at the designated position and then sit down. There is no bumper. You can jump down directly from the cable car like a wild road, which feels very childhood.

The sand dunes are beautiful under the sunset. You can see the sea when you climb to the top. The most famous sand dune theater of Shoji Ueda was shot here. The simple black and white pattern tells some nonsensical comedy style.
&quot;No matter which direction I turn, there is always something waiting for me to press the shutter.&quot; - Shoji Ueda
You can prepare all kinds of equipment to take pictures.
