Shuzenji Onsen is the oldest hot spring resort on the Izu Peninsula, with over 1,000 years of history, and is often called the 'Little Kyoto of Izu'. The town is picturesque and filled with places worth visiting. For instance, the 'Bamboo Forest Path' in the heart of the town offers a lush green bamboo landscape that rivals the beauty of Arashiyama in Kyoto! As you stroll through the town, you will encounter five bridges, each representing wishes for relationships, love, child-rearing, marriage, and more. In autumn, when the surrounding maples turn red, walking here not only allows you to enjoy the beautiful fall colors but also makes you feel as though your wishes might come true!
