Miyoshi

Miyoshi sits in the upper Gōnokawa River basin in Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan, where river valleys converge among the Chūgoku Mountains. This inland city spreads across a broad basin rather than the coastal plain associated with Hiroshima’s larger urban centres, giving it a distinct terrain and pace. Miyoshi is closely associated with yōkai, the supernatural beings of Japanese folklore; the Miyoshi Mononoke Museum explores this tradition through folk-art and cultural displays. Roads and railways link the basin with the mountain districts of western Honshu. Browse other webcams across Hiroshima Prefecture to place this inland setting in a wider geographic context.
