From July 12 (Tuesday) to August 30 (Tuesday), 2016, the Public University Open Lecture "Creating a Fun Space by Guest House-Secretary Measures to Energize Shimonoseki City by Sightseeing" has been opened for a total of five times.
　The following lecturers from the guest house "Uz House" operated in Amidaji-cho, Shimonoseki City were invited to talk about examples of their efforts and advanced cases. In addition to classroom lectures, I went to Uz House on the last day to actually see the site, so I was able to think more deeply about the possibilities of collaboration between local residents and tourists, mainly in the Karato and Akama areas.
