About Tottori Prefecture
Tottori is a coastal prefecture in southern Honshu, Japan's main island. To the east lie the Tottori Sand Dunes, the largest sand hills in Japan. The nearby Sand Museum displays elaborate sand sculptures. In the capital, also called Tottori, is the French Renaissance–style mansion of Jinpūkaku and the cherry trees of Kyusho Park. Midway up Mt. Kyusho, the Tottori Castle Ruins offer panoramic views over the city.
