Time with loved one
This picture is a bbq dinner using Izu ingredients with my family at a house in Izu. This moment in abundant nature, beautiful air, and glorious starts with healthy and tasty food we forget everything else than the people in front of us. This is one of the most important values that the Izu atmosphere can provide.
Beauty of Nature
You know picture is not excellent enough. But you can understand how nature is incorporated to our life. This is not fake. We can see this beauty of nature all around Izu.
Food, Water, Sake
This is a picture of when I ate Sushi with my family. Izu has the deepest gulf named Suruga Gulf. Here, a lot of fresh and fruitful seafood swims. Izu is one of the famous destinations for Sushi. Not only that, Izu have fresh vegetables and clean water from the mountains including Mt.Fuji. There is also a meat brand called "Ashitaka Beef" which are cows matured in abundant nature.
Cultural Heritage
This is a picture of the Mishima Shrine. I heard my grandparents walk 15 minutes to visit the Mishima shrine every morning. Mishima Shrine is perhaps not as famous as those shrines for tourists. But here inside nature and decent building, you can feel something spiritual.
Accesibility
Izu located 40 minutes by bullet train from Tokyo.
