Fukinoyama rises to 550 meters near the border between Matsuzaki and Nishi-Izu towns, northeast of Matsuzaki town center and alongside Mount Chokuro of the Amagi range. At the summit stands Hozoin, a Soto Zen temple founded as a sacred esoteric site by Kukai (Kobo Daishi) in the 3rd year of the Dado era; it was originally called Fukino Jizo Mikkyoin. In the Muromachi period it flourished as a great sacred site with 88 branch temples, but it later fell into decline and was revived by the monk Iwanaka. During the Bunki years (1501–1504), Seian, the fourth head priest of Fumon-in in Kawazu, converted from Shingon to Soto Buddhism, and the temple gained the name Hozoin from that time. The temple grounds are densely wooded, featuring the largest cedar in Minami-Izu, estimated at about 400 years old (6.5 m in circumference, 34 m tall), and a 150-year-old Oshima cherry tree. Along the approach, more than 180 stone statues known as "field Buddhas" line up in a rare sight. The moss-covered stone figures of Dainichi Nyorai, Yakushi Nyorai, Amida Nyorai, Jizo, Kannon, Kobo Daishi and others have a quietly desolate air, as if chanting the impermanence of human life. The site is also the 7th sacred stop on the Izu Yokomichi 33 Kannon pilgrimage.

In the western and southern parts of the Izu Peninsula, widespread deposits from ancient submarine volcanic eruptions are found. After a long era of submarine volcanism, the whole of Izu uplifted and emerged onto land, and subsequent erosion sculpted the landscape we see today, allowing us to view beautiful internal structures that would originally have remained buried underground. Among the submarine volcanic deposits, volcanic ash and pumice that settled on the seafloor preserved features such as bedding and, over long periods, lithified into rock. These stones became valued as a soft, easily worked, and heat-resistant building material known as Izu stone, and until around the early Showa period they were quarried and shipped from various parts of Izu. Muroiwa Cave was a quarry that operated from the Edo period until 1954 (Showa 29), and it remains one of the few places where visitors can see the site largely as it was in those days.

Namako-kabe The term namako-kabe (sea cucumber wall) comes from a technique of affixing flat roof tiles to a wall and building up the mortar joints with white plaster to resemble the sea creature called a namako. This exterior wall method offers excellent fire resistance, thermal insulation, and moisture control, and was commonly seen from the Meiji era through the early Showa period. However, it has declined year by year due to deterioration and rebuilding. Today it can still be found in Izu — notably in Matsuzakicho and Shimoda City — and elsewhere in Japan, such as Kurashiki City in Okayama Prefecture and Higashihiroshima City in Hiroshima Prefecture. Matsuzakicho still retains over 190 such buildings, preserving their traditional charm. Namako-kabe has become rare nationwide. The town treats it as an important resource and actively works to preserve it. Skilled plasterers who can still create namako-kabe carry out restorations, helping to pass on the craft and maintain the streetscape, while a local volunteer group, Matsuzaki Kura-zukuri-tai, promotes conservation and awareness. Although namako-kabe may seem commonplace, it survives today because of the dedication and efforts of these craftsmen and townspeople to pass this regional resource on to the future.

Walking around looking at the engraved letters and crests, you can see various stones and the faces of warriors. I also wanted to leave my calligraphy on a stone... I found a stone that was easy to engrave on a waterfall face and a waterfall cliff on a mountain that my teacher had taught me about. After borrowing and inscribing the stone, I will return it to its original place. This stone engraved with "Michi" is a model by Mrs. Shoen.

Ōtōin The founding of Oto-in is unknown, but it is believed that it was built in the Nara and Heian periods, and that the monks of the Tendai sect lived there to pray to the dead. It is recorded that Daito-in became a Soto School temple in the first year of Keicho 1596. Otoin Temple is a family temple where the ancestors and deceased members of the Dan family are memorialized.

Deep Spots in Taiki Town 📍Site of the Former JNR Hiroo Line Taiki Station In Taiki Town, you can still find the remains of the station building from the Hiroo Line, the railway that linked Obihiro and Hiroo and ran until 1987. Taiki Station opened in 1930, and at its peak it reportedly handled more than 1,000 passengers a day. The former track area is now a plaza called Taiki Traffic Park, but the station building still stands. You cannot enter the building, but looking through the windows you can see the ticket gate and waiting room still preserved inside. The platform area still shows the station sign and a signal lever. In Hakubayashi Park, north of Taiki Town Hall, a steam locomotive, No. 59611, which served around Hokkaido and ran on the Hiroo Line until 1975, is on display. It was installed thanks to efforts by local steam locomotive enthusiasts. Why not come and feel the traces of the railway that once ran through Taiki Town?
