We did a tour that packed a lot into one day here: We started at the Adachi Museum of Art, which also has immaculate gardens to view (but you can't enter them). We visited Matsue Castle and were able to climb the (many) steep steps to the top. We went to a lovely garden, Yuushien, which had peonies in peak bloom. A beautifully presented Kaiseki-style lunch was also served at the garden. We visited Shigeru Road, with charming bronze statues of "yokai" characters (ghosts) from an anime show. Great day, but the port area itself is not near much of anything, so be sure to book a tour. There was a small setup of local vendors at the terminal, and there was a cute bird mascot to greet us as well.

The street dedicated to manga artist Mizuki Shigeru was fascinating. The bronze statues were very cool and lots of little shops to visit.
