Shizuoka Sengen Shrine

Kanbe Shrine, Asama Shrine and Otoshimioya Shrine all come together in the collectively named site, "Osengensan”. Revered as the head shrine of the ancient Suruga Province (or modern day central Shizuoka), legend has it that Tokugawa Ieyasu was once known as Takechiyo in his youth before completing his coming-of-age ceremony here at this Tokugawa-family cherished site during the Edo period.

Mt. Yoshino

Mt. Yoshino is acclaimed as the best spot to see cherry blossoms in all of Japan. In the spring, the entire mountain is washed with flowering trees as they bloom from the Shimosenbon (the lower 1,000 trees) at the foothills up to the Okusembon (the inner 1,000 trees).
