Train for the Games in Shimane!
Shimane Prefecture is located in the northern region side of West Japan, facing the Sea of Japan. The long and narrow land stretches from east to west, and the Oki Islands float to the north of its peninsula. Surrounded by the Sea of Japan to the north, and the Chugoku mountain range to the south, Shimane Prefecture is blessed with the fresh bounties of the sea and mountains.
With 3 airports, railroads, and buses, Shimane is connected with Tokyo and other locations in Japan. In the recent years, Shimane’s athletes have been very active in national sports competitions for sports such as hockey and athletics, and Shimane is equipped with facilities such as hockey stadiums, and gymnasiums. With a professional basketball team and the pride of being the birth place of Kei Nishikori, a world-class tennis player, Shimane is a place where sports thrives. Shimane had previously also conducted pre-games training camps for the World Championships in Athletics held in Osaka, Beijing Olympics, and the 2002 FIFA World Cup.
In addition, Shimane Prefecture is a region that has left a prominent mark on Japan’s ancient culture and is home to places that have world-wide appeal as tourism resources such as the Izumo Taisha Grand Shrine, a shrine that represents Japan, Iwami Ginzan Silver Mine, a registered world heritage site, the Oki Islands, a recognized Global Geopark, and Lakes Shinji and Nakaumi, which are Ramsar Convention designated wetlands.
