Hiruzen Plateau, Highland plateau in Maniwa, Japan
The Hiruzen Plateau stretches across 20 kilometers from east to west and 10 kilometers from north to south in western Japan's Okayama Prefecture.
Archaeological discoveries indicate human presence in the Hiruzen region since the Japanese Stone Age, with significant population growth during the Yayoi period.
The plateau maintains traditional dairy farming practices, producing local specialties at Jersey Land while supporting agricultural festivals throughout the seasons.
Visitors reach the plateau via the Yonago Expressway's Hiruzen Interchange or by taking the Maniwa City Community Bus from JR Chugoku Katsuyama Station.
The Shiogama-reisen Cold Spring, originating from the plateau, provides habitat for the Japanese giant salamander and feeds into the 142-kilometer Asahi River.
