Answer:

In this beautiful excerpt from The Robe of Feathers, we can see the description of a fisherman going fishing at night and returning to his home (Mio Strand) at dawn. When he was on his way home, he felt a warm wind, a delicious fragrance of flowers that were floating in the air, and he heard a really sweet music, and he thought that he was perhaps lost because his home was never that beautiful. He even thought he could be death and be in the Land of Yomi, so we can deduce that Yomi is a beautiful place one go when one die (like Heaven).
