Cycling Around Yamaguchi City 360 Video
The roads around Yamaguchi City have the fewest cars of any prefecture in Japan except neighbouring Shimane. Yamaguchi is home to the most prime ministers of any other prefecture in Japan. This is said to result in state funds being sent to Yamaguchi to pay for high quality roads. The tarmac is mainly pretty smooth. This is the ride from near, Niho village where there is a roadside station selling local produce, with a restaurant and souvenir shop.
There are rice fields, traditional farm houses, farmer-to-consumer direct agricultural produce stores (Niho no Sato and Friend), many shrines and temples, a Japanese dance theatre (rarely open), and climbable mountains.
