SADO Island's Gold Mine World Cultural Heritage site 154C001
The development of Sado Island's gold and silver mines began in earnest in the mid-16th century. During the Edo period, it was the largest gold and silver mine in Japan and boasted one of the world's largest production volumes, supporting the finances of the Edo Shogunate. After many changes, it was mechanized and modernized, and expanded and developed into Japan's largest gold and silver mine. However, in 1989, operations were suspended due to resource depletion, bringing an end to a long mining history of nearly 400 years. Today, there are various sightseeing courses that allow you to fully enjoy the historic Sado Gold Mine, such as touring the original mine tunnels with a guide, feeling like a gold and silver ore mining technician. In 2024, the Sado Gold and Silver Mine was registered as a World Cultural Heritage site.

TOKI (Japenese Crested Ibis) a bird that symbolizes Japan 154N002
Once considered endangered, there are now around 500 Japanese crested ibises living in the wild in Sado. To create an environment in which the Japanese crested ibises can live, farmers on Sado practice environmentally friendly rice cultivation and farming methods that nurture wildlife. The scientific name is Nipponia nippon.

TARAI-bune at OGI Beach TARAI bune is a boat that uses a tub 154N003
TARAI-bune is a boat made from a tub. A major earthquake once struck this region, creating countless reefs and small inlets in the area, creating abundant fishing grounds but making traditional boats unsuitable for fishing. This created a need for boats that were more maneuverable and stable, and so the Tarai-bune, an improved version of a laundry tub, was devised. Made from cedar wood with bamboo hoops, the tarai-bune can withstand considerable weight and can be steered with a single oar. On Sado Island's Ogi Coast, they are primarily used for coastal fishing, but are also used for tourism.
