#Hot summer place Izu Peninsula should be familiar to everyone, do you know where Matsuzaki is? I don't know, but when it comes to the famous film works of "Shouting Love in the World Center" and "Formula of True Summer", maybe you will have some impressions of this small town. ... Matsuzaki is leaning on the mountains and the sea, the street scale is cute, and the old street of the sea rat wall is long. Even if you have to take a bus for about 50 minutes to get there, the charming atmosphere of Matsuzaki is enough to make people feel that it is indeed worthwhile. ... TV series "とんび" shooting location: Although Inashita Shrine is known for many things as the TV series "Yu" shooting, it is actually the oldest shrine in Matsuzaki history, protecting navigation safety and is the center of local faith. There is a huge tree age of thousands of years of Yushenmu ginkgo tree, the county designated cultural wealth "dangling lanterns", the county designated natural monument "Dagong Sunshu", are all worth stopping and taking a good look. The imperial guard in the shrine is also very good-looking, with the ginkgo old decaying wood made of "unfortunately imperial guard", before buying "big into the leaves" imperial guard to collect. ... "Big Into Yee" Yushou, is a more distinctive shrine in Inaxia, integrating Matsuzaki's most representative "sea rat wall" into the design pattern of Yushou, and the leaves of Yushin wood ginkgo to outline a unique style of Yushou. Two characteristics of the design, not only elegant and beautiful, but also very collectible value, people love at first sight. ... Matsuzaki, Shizuoka Prefecture, is a small mountain surrounded by three sides. Because there are many historic sea squirrel wall buildings, the TV program also introduces this settlement with special landscape and infinite charm. ... When you come to Matsuzaki, in addition to enjoying your walk slowly, you also recommend booking a different bicycle itinerary. Unlike ordinary bicycle riding, they are all in the urban area or attractions. This group that promotes the regeneration of the West Izu Ancient Road takes you forward to the West Izu settlement, mountains, seaside, and ancient roads. There are three strengths planned according to the needs of users. You can choose the route you want to experience. Enjoy different Matsuzaki charms. ... Although Matsuzaki is a small town far away, only after you visit can you appreciate why many works such as "Yu" "Shouting Love in the World Center" "The Formula of True Summer" come not far to take pictures, and at the same time integrate the sense of life and history of Matsuzaki. It is indeed the unique charm of such a visit and visit.
Surrounding the top of the mountain, you can see the whole peninsula, calm life, the surf, presumably only people who have been to experience what kind of life is.
I visited Izu on a trip with my friends and I went to Izu about 2 〜 3 times, and every time I went, I had a new experience and it was a wonderful place!
