Izu, Coastal city in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan
Located in central Izu Peninsula, Izu encompasses the Amagi Mountains and features numerous hot springs along the Kano River flowing into Suruga Bay.
The area transformed from Tokugawa shogunate control during the Edo period to become Izu City in 2004 through the merger of several towns.
Shuzenji Onsen maintains a 1,200-year tradition of thermal bathing, established by Buddhist monk Kobo Daishi who discovered the natural springs.
Travelers can reach Izu via the Tokaido-Sanyo Shinkansen to Mishima Station, followed by local trains to Shuzenji station.
The Toi district preserves the heritage of Toi Kinzan gold mining operations while offering traditional ryokan accommodations along the coast.
