There has been evidence that Yonago was a thriving center of population as far back as the ice age.
Early primitive people have been inhabiting this area for a very long time; it is thought that humans have been living in Yonago for close to 25,000 years.
Early tools used for food and drink have been found in the city by Archaeologists as well as remains of food.
As the settlements in Yonago grew, so did its infrastructure. Small houses and warehouses began to form a village that would persist from the Jomon period into the Yayoi.
Signs of successful agriculture could also be seen as large rice patty fields could also be dated back to around this period

A look at Yonago's Historic Castle
Yonago Castle was built in the 1400s atop a hill, much like many castles in Japan and around the world. The high vantage point was good for surveying the surrounding area and served as a natural defensive feature.
In the year 1880, the castle was dismantled and turned into the rubble we see today. Around this time many Castles would meet their demise due in part to the Meji Restoration. The historic Castle in Matsue also almost met this fate.
In my research I have found little information on the Castle. It has been reduced to a backdrop for Sakura trees, but we can only imagine the great sight it once was. These days there has been a massive local interest in the site. If you would like more information, I would recommend visiting Yonago Library.

September marks the beginning of the Fall season (or Autumn as we say in Ireland) in Ireland. It is common to see the ground covered in golden brown leaves, often slippy due to all the rain. Children will sometimes use these leaves to create artwork and crafts at school. Iconic Fall snacks are flavored with pumpkin or maple but the most popular of all is Coffee.
Fall is most often a rainy dreary season as the nights get darker and we wait for Christmas. September is also the beginning of the school year for children in Ireland, so children often despise the sight of September coming!! It's not all bad though as around this time of year older teenagers begin planning for thier 'Formal' which is a large party held usually around November where girls and boys dress up in gowns and suits and dance with all their class mates during the last year of school!
