Atami Ginza Shopping Street

Once the bustling heart of Atami, Ginza Street drew many tourists to the city center.
At the corner of the shopping street’s entrance is the Atami Chamber of Commerce & Industry, housed in a building that operated as a bank until 1975. The solid, retro structure still preserves the charm of that era.

Strolling down Ginza Shopping Street, you’ll encounter sun-dried fish hanging from eaves, a coffee shop still operating in its Showa-era form, and long-established wagashi confectioners—scenes of Japan that remain unchanged.

Recently, the street has welcomed seafood-focused restaurants and cafes using local ingredients, sweets shops such as Atami Pudding, matcha specialty Atami Satori Main Store, the premium Mont Blanc shop Silk kiito, and gelato stores. Guesthouses offering interaction between locals and travelers have also opened, giving the street a renewed, renovated feel.

Jukkokutoge (Jukkoku Pass) Jukkoku Pass is said to have gotten its name because, long ago, you could see ten provinces—Izu, Sagami, Suruga, Tōtōmi, Kai, Awa, Kazusa, Shimōsa, Musashi, Shinano—and five islands (Ōshima, Niijima, Kozushima, Miyakejima, Toshima). From the summit of Mt. Hikaneyama, you can look north to Mt. Fuji, west to Suruga Bay, and east to Sagami Bay. Over the years many artists have tried to capture this panorama with a brush, but tradition says the scale and beauty defeated them. A cable car runs to and from the summit. You can also reach it by trekking from Himenosawa Park in about an hour and a half, enjoying the natural surroundings. In spring azaleas bloom in profusion, summer brings a pleasant cool breeze, autumn waves fields of silver grass, and winter welcomes you with the warm sunshine of the highlands. ※The “Sky Dog Run” reopened on November 11, 2023!
