Shuzenji Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Shuzenji Town is located in the central part of Onon on the Izu Peninsula, surrounded by hills surrounded by Amagi, Chaoyun and Dharma Mountains. Shuzenji Spring is a large hot spring that stretches along the Katsura River and is one of the leading hot springs in Naka-Izu. The atmosphere is very harmonious with the surrounding environment, and it has been loved by many scholars, artists and writers since ancient times. The Buddha Cone Hot Spring is said to be named after the 8th century monk Kobo Daishi tapped the rock with a Buddhist cone, and the hot spring water gushed out of the rock. The Buddha Cone Hot Spring is located in the center of the hot spring street and can be visited freely. In Shuzenji, a famous temple built by Kobo Daishi in the early 9th century, there is a legend that it was the deep courtyard of Shuzenji Temple where Kobo Daishi practiced when he was young.

~ Shuzenji in AutumnThe oldest onsen town on Shizuoka’s beautiful Izu Peninsula, it is listed as one of the “100 Best Hot Springs” in the country. Shuzenji also made GaijinPot’s list as of one the three most unforgettable ryokan and onsen experiences in Japan from travel expert Rob Goss. After soaking in the hot spring, don a yukata (a light cotton kimono), and stroll down the bamboo forest path along the Katsura River. The natural scenery is particularly stunning during autumn.

The Togetsu Bridge of Shuzenji Onsen is different from the Togetsu Bridge of Kyoto. Aside from the fact that they do not look anything more alike, they also have a lot of different things to offer. The Togetsu Bridge of Shuzenji Onsen has many locals roaming around with a 1900s carriage, offering tourists for a paid ride around the historical complex. That and many more fun in the area! #holidayvacation#tripinspired#happynewyearDana4
Izu demon cat pass! Xiushan Temple can also be understood as a small town in Japan, a famous sightseeing spot of Izu, which is a temple, a shrine, a bamboo forest, a hot spring, and a history and humanity. The Xiu Temple, the core area of Xiushan Temple, was founded in the early days of the Heian period by the master of the Hongfa (that is, in the demon cat biography). Before I came, I heard about the beauty of Hongye Hongqiao in Xiushan Temple. Therefore, it is really worthwhile to wear a kimono to walk through the ancient streets of Xiushan Temple. The attractions here are very concentrated, and most of the famous attractions and restaurants can be reached on foot. It is a stop that Shizuoka should not miss, also known as "Little Kyoto of Izu"ColdAir.3
I spent the New Year's holiday abroad at Shuzenji, JapanShuzenji, Japan. 🌟🌟🌟 Shuzenji in Japan holds a high status, and in the evening, it is very quiet with few people around, allowing for a peaceful appreciation of the temple's beauty. The Fudo hot spring is said to have been named when the 8th-century monk Kobo Daishi struck a rock with a Buddhist priest's staff, causing hot spring water to gush forth. This is also the birthplace of the Shuzenji hot springs. 🌟🌟🌟 The Niji-no-Sato Park in Shuzenji recreates a 17th-century English town atmosphere with 'British Village' and a 'Craftsmen Village' showcasing traditional Japanese crafts, where one can spend hours savoring the experience. 🌟🌟🌟 Visiting Shuzenji allows one to feel an inner peace, with its scenic views everywhere, ubiquitous hot springs, timeless old inns, and more. No wonder there are so many tourists from all over the world who love Japan.NomadWanderlust$22

Shuzenji in Izu, Japan: A Historical Mark and a Peaceful Spiritual PlaceIzu, Japan, a beautiful place surrounded by mountains and seas, has been famous since ancient times for its unique natural scenery and rich cultural history. Among the many attractions in Izu, Shuzenji is undoubtedly a historical relic that cannot be ignored. Shuzenji is located in the hinterland of the Izu Peninsula, surrounded by dense forests and clear streams. Its history can be traced back to 737, when it was established as a spiritual place for the Shingon sect of Buddhism. Throughout the course of history, although Shuzenji has experienced several fires and wars, it has been rebuilt each time, always maintaining its unique style and charm. The architectural style of Shuzenji is full of ancient Japanese characteristics, and its exquisite carvings and beautiful garden designs all show the unique charm of Japanese culture. In the temple, those ancient Buddha statues and murals are even more a testament to history, giving people a deeper understanding of Japanese religion and culture. The tranquility of Shuzenji and the seaside scenery of Izu complement each other, making it an ideal tourist destination. People can experience the culture and history of ancient Japan here, and also enjoy the beautiful natural scenery of Izu. Shuzenji and Izu, the perfect combination of history and nature, provide people with an unforgettable travel experience.WilliamMcGregor461
Japan Travel Recommendation - ShuzenjiShuzenji Hot Spring Autumn Leaves A red scenery created by nature. Enjoying autumn leaves in the oldest hot spring town in Izu is definitely a unique experience🍁 'Shuzenji Hot Spring' is the most representative hot spring town in the Izu area of Shizuoka Prefecture. From mid-November to early December each year, it welcomes the autumn leaf viewing season. Here in the hot spring town, there is a 'red wooden bridge across the Katsura River', and you can also see the 'green bamboo forest'. Moreover, because it is the place where many historical events have occurred, you can feel the unique retro atmosphere of Japan wherever you go. With the addition of autumn leaves, it adds a layer of romantic mood. 'Shuzenji Rainbow Country' will also hold a night lighting event during the autumn leaf season. The night autumn leaves illuminated by lights show a different beauty from the daytime. In Shuzenji, enjoying the hot springs and leisurely admiring the autumn leaves is such a luxurious and leisurely time. Transportation: Take the limited express train 'Maiko' from Tokyo Station for about 2 hours and 10 minutes to Shuzenji Station, and then transfer to a bus for about 10 minutes from Shuzenji StationBRYNN HOPKINS1

Hakoyu is a historical onsen along the river valley. Inside consists on one bath in a large wooden tub. Very relaxing, though no outside area. Cost is 350. You pay at the machine and hand the ticket to the attendant. This onsen has no shampoo so bring your own or its only 50 for a small travel sized packet. Towel rental is 100yen. The shoe locker is pretty large and fit my day pack. Inside the lockers are a similar size. Fantastic way to enjoy the area. #staycation#tripinspired#happynewyearDana1

Manju-sho Honzangenraku Shuzenji Main Store is a local delicacy store in the heart of Shuzeji Onsen. It is a must-go delicacy store when you're in Shunzenji Onsen because it sells specially-packaged Manju at a very faur price. This store is also located right across Yokko no Yu and is a walk away from Shunzeji Onsen bus stop. They also have cafés inside and the staffs are very polite to customers. #staycation#tripinspired#happynewyearDana1

The Shuzenji Temple was founded during the 9th century. It was said that this temple bore witness to countless tragedies, deceits, and legends of history in Shuzenji, specifically of the Minamoto family. It is such a privilege to personally see a temple as old and as historical as this. I just sat there for 30 minutes, enjoying the view, marveling at the old bell, the main temple building, and the old trees around. Shuzenji Onsen is definitely lucky to have this jewel around. #holidayvacation#tripinspired#happynewyearDana1

Shuzenji is a place for Heritage Walks. My favorite place in Shuzenji is Shuzenji Onsen. It is a hill complex located in the heart of Shuzenji, where people will feel like they have traveled back to the 1800s. You can enjoy a Bamboo Park, a century old temple, hot springs, and Ryokans there. Definitely worth a visit. I walked around there wearing a rented Kimono! #holidayvacationDana2
Sakura, cauliflower, plum blossom, jujube, you don't let me, I won't let you, rush like a child, compete in the March of flowers; Japan's three prefectures: Kanagawa, Shizuoka, Yamanashi Different beauty, each has its own characteristics... Its just not thought that the original cherry blossoms will vary from variety to region, and will actually start from January to May... A good place for flowers is also the source of the above flower sea photos: Miura Komatsuike Park in Kanagawa Prefecture - Akamami Vanilla Rose Garden in Shizuoka Prefecture Izu Shuzenji/hh, Shizuoka Prefecture /Yidao City, Shizuoka Prefecture, Yuanbing Weichuan - Yamanashi Prefecture Campanulaceae I wish you a good mood in the spring!Enjoyourtrip.3

Located at a popular hotspring town. It is pretty packed when i visited on a weekend afternoon. The temple isnt very big. Quite pretty during autumn!
The area of Xiusan Temple is filled with ancient capital style. There are also attractions such as Xiusan Temple, Bamboo Forest Trail, and Zhiyue Temple. It is densely within walking distance. It takes less than 10 minutes by bus or taxi from Xiusan Temple Station of Hakone Railway. There are many buses, 1 hour 2～ 3.
Xiusan Temple belongs to Izu City and is the famous hot spring town of Izu Peninsula. Traveling to Izu Peninsula, Xiusan Temple Hot Spring is a must-see place. It is also a good choice to walk between Xiusan Temple-Bamboo Forest Trail-Finger Moon Temple.
Xiushan Temple hot spring is the oldest hot spring in Yidou. It is said that it was discovered by Master Hongfa. Hot springs are located in the center of Zhongyidou, surrounded by many scenic spots and historic sites. The quiet hot spring town is surrounded by emerald green, the sound of gurgling water in Guichuan and the hot springs, which attract numerous literati and ink visitors to visit. Ducobalt soup is the birthplace of Xiushan Temple hot springs. Unfortunately, since 2010, it has been only for visitors and can not be bathed. A stone road stretches along the bamboo forest by the river, where people can quietly enjoy peace and quiet.
It's really good. Have a chance to go and see it together.
Xiushan Temple Town is located in the middle of the Yidong Peninsula. The real monastery is called Xiushan Temple. It happened to be Lichun that day, so there was a sign "Lichun Dajie" hanging in front of the door. There is a small window in the temple for the imperial guard, but there are few kinds. Xiushan Temple itself was founded by Master Hongfa in 807. It has a history of more than 1200 years. This is the general name of Wan'an Zen Temple. The temple is built along Guichuan. There are ripples of running water and quiet bamboo forest paths nearby. These are popular scenic spots. The monastery itself is relatively small, and it will be finished in about 10 minutes. Tourists who are interested in Zen Buddhism can do more stops.
