Izunokuni, Tourism city in northern Izu Peninsula, Japan
Izunokuni extends across 94 square kilometers of varied terrain, featuring hot springs, agricultural lands, and clear views of Mount Fuji throughout winter months.
The Nirayama reverberatory furnaces, constructed in 1857 during Japan's self-isolation period, played a central role in producing cannons for coastal defense.
The city maintains one of only two remaining geisha schools in Japan, where practitioners continue traditional performances and train new artists.
Visitors can access Izunokuni via the Izuhakone Railway from Mishima Station, with bicycle rentals available for exploring local attractions.
Local farmers cultivate strawberries and tomatoes in fields nourished by natural spring water flowing from Mount Fuji through the region.
