The city of Tottori, in the western section of Japan, is the capital of Tottori Prefecture. One of its known attractions is, interestingly enough, no longer around. Tottori Castle was built in the 16th century but was devastated by an earthquake and a fire. Jinpûkaku, a Western-style building used as a rest house by Emperor Taisho, sits where the castle used to be. It is now a museum and is open to the public. Another attraction the area is known for is the Tottori Sakyu sand dunes, found north of the city. These are only some of the attractions that await you in Tottori. While planning your trip, booking a comfy place to stay would be ideal. Check out this list of the best ryokans in Tottori, Japan.
