The surrounding area of Hagi is rich in history and natural beauty. Interestingly, Hagi is often called the only town in Japan where "a map from the Edo period can still be used today" due to its remarkably preserved castle town streetscape. In 2015, five Hagi sites, including the Hagi Reverberatory Furnace, were registered as UNESCO World Heritage sites. The region is surrounded by mountains and sea, known for brand agricultural products like Senjokudai daikon radishes and Aburō tomato, as well as seafood such as Hagi's red sea bream. The closest major landmark is the historic Hagi Castle town area, a beautifully preserved district and a core part of the city's World Heritage designation, offering a direct connection to Japan's samurai past.
