SAMURAIHONOR
Feb. 2, 2024
How to visit shrines and temples/神社参拝の作法 Samurai were born with a sense of honor. Honor was the highest good. The goal that a young man who wanted to become a samurai had to pursue was not wealth or knowledge, but honor. Honor was a goal to be pursued "within oneself," without regard to profit or loss. Therefore, "honor" that is concerned with public reputation is not real honor. 侍は生まれながらにして「名誉」を自覚していた。 「名誉」は最高の善であった。 侍を目指す若者が追求しなければならない目標は、富や知識ではなく、名誉であった。 「名誉」は損得勘定なく、“自らのなかで”追い求め続ける目標なのだ。 ゆえに世間の評判を気にするような「名誉」は本当の名誉ではない。

Setsubun Festival Tomorrow The festival will be held at three shrines in Isehara City. ・Lower Shrine of Oyama Afuri Shrine…Only for related parties and those who applied ・Sannomiya Hibita Shrine…Koban coin toss at 10:00, 12:00, and 15:00 ・Isehara Daijingu Shrine…Bean-throwing at 15:00 Oni out—fortune in! This ritual drives away evil spirits and prays for a healthy, happy year ahead. There is a tradition that eating as many beans as your age will bring good fortune. Lively bean-throwing ceremonies take place on the grounds of the three shrines in Isehara City. People dressed as the bean-throwing hosts line up on a temporary stage and, with calls, throw lucky beans all at once. The beans are packed in small bags with lottery tickets inside, and local children eagerly scramble to collect them. At Hibita Shrine, the demon-driving ceremony is a highlight and a traditional event. By the way, if you throw beans inside the house, don’t you sometimes find a bean you missed when doing the year-end big cleaning? For details, please see the Isehara City Tourism Association website.

This time, I would like to introduce "Hatcho Pond". Enjoy a stroll on the hiking trail Amagi Volcano erupted repeatedly about 20~800,000 years ago. Hatcho Pond on top of Mt. Amagi was called a crater lake, but it has become clear that it is an active lake formed by the formation of a depression in the innermost part due to the displacement of an active fault on the slope of Mt. Amagi, and water accumulates there. On the gentle slopes of Amagi Volcano around the pond, primeval forests such as beech and Himeshara spread, and you can enjoy a walk. ◆ Detailed information ◆ 【Spot name】Hatcho Pond 【Address】Nashimoto, Kawazu Town, Kamo District, Shizuoka Prefecture 【Parking】None ◇ ◆ ◇ Parking information for those who come to the Kawazu Cherry Blossom Festival by car ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ About the parking lot ◆ Business hours:8:30~21:00 ・Regular car ●Regular car 4 ~ 13 parking lot about 700 ~ 800m to the station front venue, about 700 ~ 800m to the mine hot spring venue [Daytime] 8:30~17:00・・・1 car / 1,000 yen [Night] 18:00~21:00・・・1 car / 200 yen ・Heavy-duty vehicles ●Large 1 and 2 parking lots: about 700 ~ 800 m to the front of the station, about 700 ~ 800 m to the mine hot spring venue [Daytime] 8:30~17:00・・・1 car / 5,000 yen [Night] 18:00~21:00・・・1 car / 1,000 yen

HELLO TO EVERYONE WHO WATCHES COOL JAPAN VIDEOS! This is the Izu Tourism Association.

In upcoming Cool Japan videos, we will fully introduce the charms of this small town of about 8,000 residents, leaving nothing out. Stay tuned! For this first post, we will briefly share recommended spots and travel information for Minami-Izu Town, and we plan to introduce as many places as possible. ■■■ Introducing sightseeing spots in Minami-Izu Town, Shizuoka Prefecture ■■■ Minami-Izu Town offers many spots to enjoy the beauty of nature! You are sure to find a favorite place of your own. ◇ Irozaki Ocean Park Irouzaki Ocean Park opened in 2019 on a 100-meter cliff as a facility to better enjoy Irouzaki. Parking and rest facilities are available, and the Minami Izu Visitor Center inside the park provides geo-site explanations and tours. Irouzaki is also popular as a power spot for matchmaking. ◇ Yuigahama Beach This beach stretches 1.2 kilometers of pure white sand. It has a gently sloping seabed and calm waves, and it is busy with swimmers in summer. The stunning sunsets over the open sea make it a popular photo spot. ◇ Roadside Station Shimogamo Onsen Yunohana This roadside station at the southernmost tip of the Izu Peninsula offers fresh local vegetables and specialty products. It’s a great place to find souvenirs and local gourmet food, so be sure to stop by when visiting Minami-Izu Town. The facility also features a footbath using Shimogamo Onsen water to soothe your travel fatigue. ◇ Hagachizaki Monkey Bay At Hagachizaki, a wild monkey park attracts about 300 monkeys that come to feed, allowing close observation of their behavior. It is one of the largest monkey parks in eastern Japan. ◇ Hirizo Beach Hidden between Irouzaki and Nakagi, this beach is accessible only by boat and boasts exceptional water clarity. The area is part of a national park, preserving vast, unchanging natural scenery. ■■■ Local specialties and gourmet foods of Minami-Izu Town, Shizuoka Prefecture ■■■ Surrounded by the sea, Minami-Izu Town is blessed with seafood, letting you fully savor the ocean’s bounty. ◇ Spiny lobster (ise-ebi) Minami-Izu Town ranks first in Shizuoka Prefecture and ninth nationwide for spiny lobster catch volume. The spiny lobster caught here is known for its size and rich flavor. ◇ Turban shell (sazae) and abalone The coastal waters around Minami-Izu Town are rich in seaweed, producing nutritious, flavorful turban shells and abalone. Sazae-meshi, a dish that lavishly uses the meaty local turban shell, won the top prize at the 2012 Izu Specialty Market. ■■■ Events and festivals in Minami-Izu Town, Shizuoka Prefecture ■■■ Minami-Izu Town hosts various events and festivals throughout the seasons. ◇ Minami no Sakura and Nanohana Festival About 800 cherry trees line the banks of the Aono River and reach full bloom a little earlier than elsewhere. Along the river by Roadside Station Shimogamo Onsen Yunohana, the festival features lotteries, food stalls, and nighttime cherry blossom illuminations timed with the blooms. The carpet of pink cherry blossoms and yellow rape blossoms together is a sight worth seeing. ◇ Yuigahama Fireworks Festival This fireworks festival takes place at Yuigahama, selected as one of Japan’s Top 100 Beaches, where powerful offshore fireworks can be enjoyed from the sand. ■■■ Hot springs and accommodations in Minami-Izu Town, Shizuoka Prefecture ■■■ Shimogamo Onsen is a historic and beloved hot spring; soaking there lets you forget daily noise and refresh both body and mind.
