# Ticket of Bukeyashiki
The organizer will prepare tickets of Bukeyashiki at the registration desk. If you want to visit Bukeyashiki, please come to the registration desk to get the ticket.

# Small outing
In the afternoon of Tuesday (Nov. 19), we will go out for lunch after the group photo which will be taken in our session hall. The lunch place will be the Matsue local beer hall. We will reach therel by Horikawa sightseeing boat though the canals around Matsue Castle. The boat course and the dock will be specially arranged for IISC-23. The local beer hall is located next to the arrival place of the boat. The organizer will NOT provide a beer, but if you pay by yourself, you can freely order a beer there. After the lunch, we will come back to the conference venue by buses.


# Outing
After the lunch in the small hall of Messe on Thursday (Nov. 21), we will go out for outing. We will move to Izumo Taisha by buses. Several local guides (probably eight) will join us there who can introduce us the history around Izumo Taisha in English. To adjust the number of the local guides, participants will be separated into several groups for walking in Izumo Taisha.

After Izumo Taisha, we will have fee time for enjoying walking and shopping along Shinmondori Street which is located at the opposite side of Izumo Taisha entrance. The organizer will provide a shopping ticket (500 yen ticket) for all participants. Please note that the shopping ticket can be used only in some shops specified in the maps below. The shops are red color-highlighted in the Japanese version map. English map is also linked below for your reference, although those shops are not indicated. You can also identify the shop by a small flag of IISC-23 at the entrance of the shop (see a photo below).

After the free time at Shinmondori Street, participants will gather at the bus parking place which is the same where you got off the bus (Shinmondori Hiroba, 神門通り広場). The meeting time is 4:45 PM. Because there are three buses and the organizer will check the number of passengers on each bus, please take the same bus which you took from Messe to Izumo Taisha.

# Conference dinner
After Izumo Taisha, we will go directly to Yuushien for the conference dinner without stopping at Kunibiki Messe. Some of you may want to skip the outing and attend just the conference dinner. We will provide a small bus for such people which will depart from Kunibiki Messe at 5PM. If you want to get on the bus, please inform organizers at the registration desk.
