Experience climbing kilns and the history of ceramics, take a rest in the cool museum interior

About this spot

Onsenzu has been known since the Edo period as a pottery village, and this facility allows visitors to learn about its history and techniques. The museum preserves a large historic climbing kiln that was once used, allowing close viewing of the kiln's interior and construction—a main highlight. The pottery culture that developed alongside the prosperity of Iwami Ginzan is presented clearly through photos and exhibits. On a hot summer afternoon, it's the perfect spot for a cooling break in an air-conditioned, quiet environment.

Name: 温泉津温泉夏まつり

Date & time: 8/8 (Sat) Time TBA

Venue: 大田市温泉津町 (温泉津港)

2026年8月8日(土)開催、温泉津温泉の夏を彩る花火大会です。三方を山に囲まれた小さな入り江に打ち上がる花火は、音が周囲の山々に反響してひときわ大きく響きます。世界遺産の町として知られる石見銀山ゆかりの温泉町で見る花火は、都会の花火大会とはまた違う、静かで趣のある味わいがあります。夜空を彩る光の連なりと、港に停まる漁船のシルエットが重なる景色は、この土地ならではの夏の風物詩です。

Tips

荒天時の開催可否は大田市や主催者の公式発表で確認しましょう。会場周辺は駐車スペースが限られるため、公共交通機関や町並みからの徒歩移動がおすすめです。終了後は温泉街への道が混み合うため、少し余韻を楽しんでから移動すると安心です。
