Mishima, Transport hub in eastern Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan

Mishima spans across 62 square kilometers at the northern end of Izu Peninsula, with Mount Fuji rising in the background to the north.

The city developed around Mishima Shrine during the Nara period, later becoming a significant post station along the Tokaido highway connecting Edo to Kyoto.

Mishima Shrine remains the central Shinto complex of the Izu region, featuring a 1,200-year-old Kinmokusei tree designated as a national natural treasure.

The Tokaido Shinkansen connects Mishima Station to Tokyo in approximately one hour, with regular services throughout the day.

The Genpei River flows through the city with spring water from Mount Fuji, supporting local wildlife and providing recreational spaces.
