An old town in the southwest of Iishi County, central Shimane Prefecture. National Route 54 crosses Akana Pass in the south and extends to Miyoshi City, Hiroshima Prefecture, making it a key transportation route between the two prefectures. There is little arable land, so beef cattle breeding is popular. There is the Kijima Dam. In January 2005, it merged with Tonbara Town, Iishi County, to become a town, Iinan Town. 117.98 km2 . 3,477 people (2003).
