No.1. Izumo Airport - If you're going to Izumo Taisha Shrine, start from Izumo Airport.

Izumo Airport is used by many tourists as the gateway to Shimane Prefecture. Shimane Prefecture is famous for Izumo Taisha Shrine, but it is a little far from Izumo Airport to Izumo Taisha Shrine, so we recommend renting a car. There is a rental car reception counter in the domestic arrival lobby on the first floor, where you can make arrangements for your rental car.

You can rent a car from a rental office near the airport, enjoy sightseeing at Izumo Taisha Shrine, and then drop it off at a nearby rental office. By reserving your preferred rental office in advance, you can use the drop-off service that fits your itinerary.
