About Shizuoka

Nestled between the blue waters of the Pacific Ocean and the majestic Mt. Fuji, Shizuoka Prefecture presents a stunning blend of natural beauty, deep-rooted history, and vibrant modern culture. Here, the past meets the present in the most scenic settings imaginable. Shizuoka is renowned for its pristine beaches, lush green tea fields, and hot springs, offering a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of Japan's megacities. The region's history is rich and alive, reflected in ancient shrines, castles, and the Tokaido road, which has connected Kyoto and Tokyo for centuries. Yet, it’s not all about quiet contemplation; Shizuoka buzzes with contemporary life in its cities, where shopping, dining, and entertainment options abound. Whether you're soaking in the heritage at a traditional tea house, enjoying the thrill of surf waves, or marveling at Mt. Fuji's snow-capped peak, Shizuoka invites you to be part of its ongoing story.



Travel Tips for Shizuoka

Traveling to Shizuoka offers an array of experiences, and a little preparation can go a long way in enhancing your visit. Firstly, consider your transportation options; while renting a car provides freedom to explore remote areas, the region is well serviced by the JR Tokaido Shinkansen and local trains, making it convenient for those preferring public transport. Accommodation ranges from luxury resorts to cozy ryokans (traditional inns), so choose based on your comfort and interest in experiencing Japanese culture. Speaking of, always remember to respect local customs, such as removing shoes before entering homes and certain public spaces, and being mindful of noise levels on trains. Lastly, English may not always be widely spoken, so learning a few basic Japanese phrases can greatly enrich your interactions with locals.



Top Attractions in Shizuoka

  • Mt. Fuji: Japan's iconic symbol and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Mt. Fuji's awe-inspiring beauty is a must-see. Whether you're viewing it from a distance or embarking on a climb, its majestic presence is unforgettable.
  • Shiraito Falls: Near the base of Mt. Fuji lies this natural wonder, a breathtaking waterfall that cascades down a lush, green backdrop. Its serene beauty makes it a perfect spot for contemplation and photography.
  • Kawazu Seven Waterfalls: A scenic walking trail leads you past seven distinct waterfalls, each with its own charm. The area is particularly magical in early spring when the cherry blossoms bloom.
  • Shizuoka Sengen Shrine: Comprising three Shinto shrines, this complex is steeped in history. Its peaceful surroundings and impressive architecture offer a deep dive into traditional Japanese culture.
  • Green Tea Plantations: The rolling hills of Shizuoka's countryside are covered in vibrant green tea fields. Visiting a plantation allows you to learn about tea production and sample the freshest brews.


Local Cuisine of Shizuoka

Shizuoka's culinary scene is as diverse as its landscape, offering flavors that tantalize the taste buds of foodies. The region is particularly famed for its green tea, wasabi, and seafood. Unagi (eel) served over rice, known locally as unadon, is a delicacy not to be missed, capitalizing on the fresh catch from Suruga Bay. Wasabi cultivated in the clear, running waters of the Izu Peninsula adds a zesty kick to sashimi and other dishes. For a truly local experience, seek out a kaiten sushi (conveyor belt sushi) restaurant where you can taste different varieties of fresh seafood. And, of course, no visit to Shizuoka is complete without indulging in matcha, a finely ground green tea, incorporated in everything from sweets to noodles.
