The building is now the gathering spot for employee lunches, meetings and retreats. Another employee, Mizu Ohkouchi, told me she visited Takyo Abeke several years ago for a one-night break. Tomi offered her a job on the spot after Ohkouchi told her she was unhappy in Tokyo. Children are also helping boost the population. About 20 babies have been born here in the past couple of years. Unsure exactly what Addie would do for two days in Omori, I suggested that she help Yukiko with the children.
As often happens in Omori, Addie became immersed in the life. She spent the next day with Yukiko and her family, going on walks and shopping for groceries. For better or worse, Addie also introduced Haniwa to the wonders of Snapchat filters.
At dinner that night, Tomi told Addie she had a gift with children. I suggested half-joking that Addie could return the next summer as a babysitter. I longed to make the Omori life a bit of my own.

People still live here and it's not yet very touristy, which is part of its attraction. As with any Japanese village or town there are of course shrines and temples. As far as temples go, the area around the mine was once home to several hundred temples.
The life expectancy of miners was very short and there was an enormous need for funerals, but many of these temples have now closed and disappeared, but still you will pass by several in the village itself. A couple of hundred meters up the side road next to the museum is Shogenji with a large, impressive gate with carvings. The inside of the temple has things to see but is now only open on weekends. About halfway up the street is Kanzeonji up some stairs leading to a rocky outcropping with views across the rooftops of the village.
The Nio guardians in the gatehouse are worth seeing, and there are another couple of temples along the main street, but the one most worth visiting is at the top of the village. Rakanji itself is nothing special, but across the street are several small stone bridges across a stream that lead to caves carved into the rockface by miners within which are statues, of the Rakan, the disciples of the Buddha, that are often found in groups of Rakanji Omoricho, Odashi, Shimane Tel.
