Before you visit
Last entry before closing
Last entry is 16:30, 30 minutes before closing. Busy times may bring admission queues. For a late-afternoon arrival, see exhibitions first, then walk the street.
A day in Sakaiminato
Visit the museum and yokai street while staying in Yonago. Travel from Tottori’s dunes is long, so give Sakaiminato its own day rather than a brief stop after the dunes. Choose a return train to Yonago too.
