Kawazu cherry blossoms and newlyweds ?? Pre-shot on the best day!!

Mt. Fukino is a 550-meter-high mountain that rises near the boundary between Matsuzaki and Nishi-Izu towns, northeast of Matsuzaki City, along with Mt. Chokuro in Amagi. Located at the top of the mountain, the Soto School Fukino Mountain Treasure House is an ancient temple opened by Kukai (Kobo Daishi) in the 3rd year of Datong as a sacred place for esoteric Buddhism, and was originally called Fukino Jizo Secret Temple. In the Muromachi period, it flourished as a large sacred site with 88 temples, but after that, it was deserted and rebuilt by the monk Iwanaka. In the Bunki year (1501~04), the 4th generation monk Kiyoyasu of Kawazu and Fumon-in converted from Shingon Buddhism to Soto School, and from this time on, it became Hozoin. In the precincts, the largest cedar in Minami-Izu (circumference 6.5 m, height 34 m), which is estimated to be about 400 years old, and Oshima cherry trees that are 150 years old are densely grown, and it is rare to see more than 180 "wild Buddhas" lined up around the approach. Dainichi Nyorai, Yakushi Nyorai, Amitabha Buddha, Jizo, Kannon, Kobo Daishi, etc., all of which look like mossy stone Buddhas, seem to be singing a chorus of heartlessness in the human world. It is also the 7th sacred site of "Izu Yokodo 33 Kannon".

In the western and southern parts of the Izu Peninsula, the ejecta of ancient submarine volcanoes is widely distributed. After a long period of undersea volcanoes, the whole of Izu rose and emerged on land, and subsequent erosion gave it its current appearance, allowing us to see firsthand the beautiful internal structures that would have been buried underground. Among the submarine volcanic ejecta, volcanic ash and pumice that fell on the seafloor were transformed into stone over a long period of time, retaining the stripes and other patterns that were formed on the seabed. The stone made in this way was useful as a soft, easy-to-process, and fire-resistant stone (Izu stone), and was produced and shipped in various parts of Izu until the beginning of the Showa era. Muroiwa-do is a quarry that was in operation from the Edo period to Showa 29, and is one of the few places where you can visit it while retaining the state of that time.

About 1,200 Someiyoshino trees are planted about 6 kilometers from the mouth of the Nakagawa River, which flows through the center of Matsuzaki Town, to Osawa Onsen, and it is a famous place for cherry blossoms that bloom from late March to early April. Fun together with the "Flower Garden Using Rice Fields" held at the same time. During the flowering season, the cherry blossoms are lit up at night, and the cherry blossoms reflected in the Nakagawa River are also fantastic.

In a vast rice field of about 30,000 square meters during the off-season, the seeds of six types of flowers, "Afuri Oyster Senka", "Ruri Karakusa", "Hime Goldfish Grass", "Tsumashiro Hinagiku", "Hinageshi", and "Yagurumasou", are sown in order from mid-February every year, and as far as the eye can see, it becomes a flower garden, and it is a famous place for flowers that Representative a Matsuzaki that will delight everyone who visit. In the flower garden, there is a realistic scarecrow that looks exactly like humans and animals, a flower garden shrine (flower Torii (shrine gate)), a foot bath, and you can pick flowers for free from May 1 to 5 during Golden Week.
