What travelers say:

What is Japan like here?“Tottori Sand Dunes” is a place where you can feel a little unbelievable otherworldly feeling.From the moment you climb the stairs from the visitor center and stand at the top, the world of sand and sea spreads out before you.The small shadows are other tourists, but I can't grasp the perspective, and I get the illusion that they exist far away (actually, they're not that far).If the wind blows, the sand will fly and sand may accumulate in the pockets of your shoes and clothes, so we recommend wearing boots and clothes that can be closed.Every time the wind blows, wind ripples are created and the footprints disappear.I thought the best view was in the evening when the sun was setting.One side is dyed orange, as if you are in a desert somewhere.It was really nice that it was sunny when we visited.Also, if you go first thing in the morning, you will see sand dunes with only wind ripples and no footprints.
