‌梦想旅行家联盟:“🌞 summer must go! Treasures in the treasure place where Izumum is about to burst into flames in Japan 👋, today I want to predict a place where Izu is super hot in Japanese summer ~ Izu 🥰! It is south of Tokyo, and you can reach this small secret world along the coast. Izu is simply a treasure! Not only have mountains and seas, but also you can see the beautiful Mount Fuji view 🗻, you can also feed the cute "Kabarabara" (water dolphin king) 🐹, and then go to enjoy a romantic fireworks conference at night 🎆, the atmosphere is directly full! And it only takes 1 hour to get there from Tokyo, super convenient 🚗! There is also the famous Matcha Mountain 🍵, the fresh green seems to have its own healing effect. The romantic Chengyu Coast Suspension Bridge, walking on it is like walking into Miyazaki's comic world 🎨, full of natural beauty. Baozi, this summer, hurry to Izu to feel this beauty, okay 🥳!”

DEAR张小球:“The hotel we stayed in was right on the Shirahama coast. The second and third photos were taken when we climbed to the roof of the hotel. The coast view was very beautiful. The sea water was very clear. The sand on the beach was not only fine and soft, but the entire coast was very clean.”

bab***50:“We took a train from Atami to Izu Kitagawa. We didn't buy a ticket specifically, so I don't know if it counts as a sea-viewing train. One side of the seat faces the sea, and the back can hold large luggage. The other side has a single row of seats. We only went to Kitagawa. There were not many sea views along the way, but they would appear suddenly. It was like a brightening, vast sea and sky. The train went through many tunnels. Maybe there are more coastal scenery from Kitagawa to Shimoda. The overall feeling is pretty good. We also encountered the black ship on the way and passed by:)”

天生哥:“The cherry blossom avenue in April is like walking in a cartoon by Hayao Miyazaki. It's so beautiful! It was too late when we went there, but the most beautiful time should be when the flowers fall. When the pink petals fall, it's full of girlish hearts! It's very suitable for taking photos in spring”

高温预警40度:“Compared with the domestic majestic waterfalls, Katsu Qiyu is obviously small, but it is fresh, cool and small. After visiting the boiling Tokyo metropolis of life, you will feel refreshing, calming, and breathing. If you want to sweat more, you can walk up from Hejin Qilin Hot Spring and go all the way to the entrance of Hejin Qilin Tour trail.”

ろれるりら:“It was a wonderful place with many kinds of reptiles and the opportunity to interact with them. Many of the visitors were families, and the rare iguanas, snakes, and lizards were popular. I visited on a nice day, but the air was stagnant inside, probably because the temperature was set to suit the animals.”

The temple is not big, but the incense is very strong. Most of the tourists who come here to play in the sea will come to visit it.”

Chenhutamu:“This restaurant is right next to Izukyu-Shimoda Station. As you can tell from the name, it serves fish dishes. One of Izu's specialties is golden eye snapper, which is a must-try. Especially the braised version, the sauce is a little sweet and delicious.”
