“Takenoko Village,” nestled in the center of Minami-Izu Town in the national park, is overflowing with seasonal flavors. Let your children experience the nostalgic tastes of the past—this will surely become a memorable day. Experience bamboo shoot picking across an expansive 490,000-square-meter bamboo grove. Enjoy local specialties sold on site and meals centered on bamboo shoots. The mountains offer seasonal tastes throughout the year: bamboo shoots, shiitake mushrooms, wild mountain vegetables, amanatsu citrus, chestnuts, and shihotake (square bamboo). Take home memories of bamboo craftwork, too—every activity promises fun and a peaceful break from the city bustle. October 10–October 31 Shihotake Picking It’s shihotake season—pick the shoots of this square-shaped bamboo. Although this rare species originates from China, it tastes excellent. Depending on the weather, the season can extend into early November. May Amanatsu Citrus Picking Fully ripened and naturally grown, these fruits offer a perfect balance of tartness and sweetness that fills your mouth with delightful flavor. September Chestnut Gathering The season is planned from early September to early October (subject to change depending on summer weather). For details, please call us. November, December, and March Shiitake Picking Yields depend on rainfall, but you can enjoy the thick, natural shiitake flavor that defines true shiitake mushrooms.”

Night cherry blossom illumination is now on near Iwanai Shrine Street and Kunsuien! This is a new event starting this year🌸 Also, today, April 29, a tour of Kunsuien will be held. Kunsuien is one of the villas owned by wealthy merchant Ichitaro Umezawa, who served as Iwanai’s first mayor. It features a single-story wooden house built around 1920 (Taisho 9) and a Japanese garden developed between 1897 (Meiji 30) and around 1913 (Taisho 2). Full restoration began in fiscal 2021 (Reiwa 3), and the work is finally complete this year! A pre-opening runs from April 30, 9:00–17:00. Illumination of this site also starts on May 3, so please enjoy it together with the night cherry blossom lighting. If you visit Iwanai-cho, please be sure to stop by.

The beach forms a literal bow-shaped curve about 1.2 km long, with a gently sloping shoreline and calm waves, making it a safe and enjoyable spot for couples and families. To the east, the projecting Tarai Cape offers a superb observation point with sweeping coastal views; to the south you can see the Izu Islands, and to the east and west the coastline stretches toward Tsumekizaki and Ishirōzaki respectively—one of the site’s proud features. ● Selected as one of Japan’s Top 100 Swimming Beaches ● Selected as one of Japan’s Top 100 Shores (Japan’s Top 100 Forests, Waterfalls, and Shores) ● Selected as one of Japan’s Top 100 White Sand and Green Pine Beaches ● One of the Three Great Beaches of Izu (Yumigahama, Shirahama Ōhama, Imai-hama)
