Izumo Magatama Making Experience

Shimane Prefecture has been known since ancient times as a major production area for magatama, and the agate processing techniques are still passed down around Tamatsukuri Onsen. In the magatama making experience, you can select an agate gemstone and gradually shape it with a file to create your own original magatama. The activity takes about one hour and can be enjoyed by both children and adults. The completed magatama can be taken home as a charm or accessory, making it a memorable souvenir from your Izumo trip.
