A great museum sitting beside the beautiful Lake Shinji. I recommend visiting it in the afternoon so that you can have enough time to finish all the exhibitions and then see the sunset. There’re buses twice or thrice every hour from the Izumo station and only takes 15 minutes.

Rabbits along the lake are so cute. Beautiful place to visit before viewing sunset

Didn't go inside, but the outside is by the beach and the museum has see through glass walls, so you can view from the outside.

A nice museum with a fantastic view over the lake and extensive collection by Hokusai of which unfortunately very few items are on display at any one time. One appreciates that for the visitors who live locally there is an element of thrill associated with seeing a new piece from the collection next time when the selection of prints on display changes, but the thrill loses the point for visitors from far away who cannot come to Matsue often.

This museum has a great hospitalityfor visitors who want to watch sunset. It closes 30 minitues after the sunset. So you can enjoy the great view from here. I miss the art works here because I didn't have time to see.
