[2025 Ito Attraction] Travel Guide for Izu Shaboten Park (Updated Apr)

It is said that Mount Fuji rewards early risers. Compared to Lake Kawaguchiko, I prefer Lake Yamanaka. Although there was no "reverse Fuji," I was already very satisfied. There was sunrise, swans, and Mount Fuji. 🚗6:30 Hirano Lakeside (Hirano no Hama) Took a taxi to Hirano no Hama. There were swans, sunrise, and Mount Fuji. 🚴10:00 Shiratori-hama After 7:00, there's a bus. Took the bus back to the hotel and rented a bicycle with electric assist. It wasn't tiring. Cycling around the lake took 2 hours. Gave up on "the park" as it opens at 11:00 and there were already many people waiting for viewing spots at 10:00. But actually, just a little bit past "the park," the scenery was also amazing. There's no need to wait specifically. After cycling around the lake, had brunch at Denny's. In the afternoon, took a bus to Lake Kawaguchiko. A perfect day. ❗️Tips The lake bus only starts running at 7:00. To see the sunrise early, you need to take a taxi or stay near Hirano. There are swans in many places, especially at Shiratori-hama, and also at Hirano. Bicycle rentals are available from 9:00 for JPY 2,000 for two hours. Rented from an elderly gentleman near Shiratori-hama. Two hours is enough to cycle around the lake and take photos. You can choose a hotel in Hirano or near a bus stop, which is very convenient.

You can visit the Izu Peninsula while visiting Atami. It takes about 50 minutes by car from JR Atami Station to Izu Kogen Station. #伊豆秆 The attraction of Izu Peninsula lies in the mountains and plateaus here, and it is also a hot spring resort. #伊豆草人掌动物 This is a free-range zoo with a cactus theme. It is recommended that you allow at least 2 hours to visit. On weekdays, the adult fare is JPY 2700. Please note the opening hours here (09:30 - 17:00) Please refer to their official website for actual times. ✨As soon as you enter, you will see a large group of capybaras walking around. The birthplace of capybaras soaking in open-air hot springs is the Izu Cactus Zoo. But this is a winter-only item. In addition, this is a free-range zoo with a cactus theme. Each region has different flora and fauna. ✨Many animals are really close to each other, to the extent that there are no cages or fences blocking them. You can also pay to buy some snacks and feed them to interact with the animals. ⛰️ After the tour, you can go to the "Sunshine Park" to take a photo with Mt. Omuro. There is also a spot where you can overlook Mount Fuji. Finally, go to the souvenir shop to buy souvenirs to complete the trip. . .

Many people know that they go to Atami near Izu City to soak in hot springs, enjoy cherry blossoms, and savor delicious food. However, in a place in the suburbs, there is a place where you can pet small animals and see different species of cacti! At the end of our trip to Tokyo on 31/1, the kids were not feeling well, probably because the weather was too cold. But when they heard that we would charter a car to see animals that day, they immediately perked up! After visiting the Itokawa hiking trail to see the early cherry blossoms, we drove for about an hour to reach our destination. This place is very big. Unlike Mother Ranch, it has more animal species and a lot of space for animals to move around. There aren't too many cages, but instead their activity spaces are divided, such as the owl house and bird area. Therefore, we can get very close to the animals and even walk on the road with them. I was a little scared at first, but I saw the child walking very happily. He was not startled even when an owl flew by. He looked like he was enjoying it. In addition to the above, there are also marmots, wild boars, bats, goats, water snakes, river snakes, gorillas and many more. Just look at the map of the park and you will be surprised that there are so many kinds of animals here! In addition, there is a cactus museum where you can see a wide variety of species; there is also a souvenir shop and cactus plants can be purchased. We stayed for more than an hour and then left because the park closes at 4 o'clock (January). The children were very reluctant to leave. If we had arrived earlier, we could have walked more, played more, and would have been happier! The road here is easy to walk on and there are many animals to see on both sides. I believe that adults and children will not feel tired easily!

I went to Izu Cactus Zoo! I didn't really like zoos when I was younger, but as I got older, I started to like them. Human society is complicated and exhausting, after all (lol) At those times, I feel healed when I see animals. This time, I especially felt the cuteness of the birds (raptors?). How are you all doing now with the coronavirus? I'll come and see you again. #couplestrip #trip2022

If you like animals, Ito Station Izu Shaboten Zoo 🦊 The moment I saw the picture of the capybara, I knew I had to go here! The moment I entered the zoo entrance, I could see the capybara animals right in front of me and even feed them ❗️ I could even touch them!! 📍1317-13 Futo, Itō, Shizuoka 413-0231 #ItoTravel #IzuPeninsula #Zoo #Capybara #伊豆シャボテン公園 #伊東駅 #SpecialHotelAccommodationEvent

Last weekend, I went to Izu with my friends Came for a two-day and one-night trip to see the sea bathing baths This is also my fifth time to Izu (on average once a year) I feel like every time I come to Izu, the weather is always bad. Sure enough, this time is no exception - There are many transportation options to choose from Tokyo to Izu We chose the cheapest ordinary tram when we came and went. Because except me, the other four friends are here for the first time So I took a traditional classic route Day1 Tokyo - Atami - Ito - Kinosaki Coast - Izu Atakawa Day2 Izu Atagawa-Izu Plateau-Atami-Tokyo - Because the weather was really bad the next day It's either foggy or raining So I didn’t go up Mount Omuro. I only went to the Cactus Zoo When I came to Izu for the first time, I only went to Mount Omuro This time I just made up for the regret I had 4 years ago. - Izu Cactus Park is quite famous in Japan Opened in 1959, it has more than 1,500 species of cacti and succulents from all over the world. and more than 140 species of animals Many are relatively rare, such as tapirs and anteaters The big star in the park is the friendly representative - capybara There is also a special capybara bath in winter The main feature is a place where you can have close contact with animals. Capybaras, rabbits, hamsters, monkeys, pikas and many other small animals can be rua But remember to be gentle And most small animals can be fed A box of feed/a handful of grass 200-300 yen (quite expensive) The park is really big It felt like it would take 2 hours+ to finish all the shopping. We only stayed for an hour and a half, and we didn’t see many animals in the west. - 🌟Practical guide 1⃣️Zoo tickets are 2,700 days on weekdays and 2,800 days on weekends. It is recommended to purchase online in advance, アソビュー! It only costs 2,600 days. 2⃣️The zoo and Mount Omuro are quite far from Izu Plateau Station. The one-way bus takes 370 days and takes about 20 minutes. The bus basically only leaves once an hour, so be sure to confirm the timetable at the station in advance and arrange your time reasonably. 3⃣️If you only visit the east coast of Izu, remember to buy an Izu-kyu pass (you must bring your passport), which can be used in the Ito-Izukyu Shimoda area. A 1-day pass costs 1,200 days and a 2-day pass costs 2,500 days. The Izu Kyuko Line is quite expensive, so you can save a lot of money by using the pass. 4⃣️There are restaurants in the zoo and Izu Plateau Station. 5⃣️In terms of accommodation, there are many hot spring hotels to choose from in Ito, Izu Atagawa, and Izukyu Shimoda.

When you come to Japan, you must not miss this small city - Shizuoka. Shizuoka not only has the magnificent Mount Fuji, but also beautiful beaches and hot springs. It is an ideal tourist destination and worth your visit!! 🚇Transportation: It only takes 90 minutes to reach Shizuoka by Shinkansen from Tokyo and Osaka, and the transportation is very convenient. 🍃Recommended must-visit attractions: ✔Mount Fuji World Heritage Center Here you can not only enjoy the panoramic view of Mount Fuji🍃, but also the inverted Fuji building designed by Ban Shigeru, which is comparable to the giant red torii of the Fujisan Hongu Sengen Taisha Shrine, and it is magical and shocking. ✔Atami Sun Beach Located in the eastern part of Shizuoka Prefecture, it is a good place to relax. Here you can enjoy the sun and beach, and feel the tranquility of the sea. ✔Izu Cactus Park If you like animals, this is a good choice, and it is also suitable for taking children.

Due to the hot weather, these top stars are lazily lying on the ground, and you can pet them as you like! For just 100 yen, you can buy feed and feed them to your heart's content! They are super cute😘😘. From November to April each year, there is a special event where capybaras take yuzu baths.

#Zoo #100 Ways to Travel The animal is so cute, I believe no one can refuse it, and if you can get up close and personal, you can't help yourself. This time I was lucky enough to come to #Izu Cactus Zoo to touch the animals 😍 My favorite is feeding water sesame, the hands are very soft and cute He land 🤣 I want to go again after I go, and if I have children, I want to go even more to cultivate the love of children

#Tokyo Attractions Izu Cactus Park brings together nearly 4,000 kinds of exotic cacti from all over the world, making it a paradise for plant lovers. As you enter the park, what catches your eye are cacti of various shapes and sizes arranged neatly, forming a vibrant natural landscape. Some are slender and tall like swords pointing straight to the sky, some are huge and strong like majestic stone pillars, and others are twisted and deformed into strange shapes that are shocking, amazing and extraordinary. In addition to the outdoor park, the park has also specially planned a number of glass greenhouse exhibition halls, which display various rare and precious species in different categories, allowing visitors to see the diverse appearance of cacti. The most fascinating of them is the giant king palm, with its towering and huge body and dazzling bright red flowers, which is magnificent and fascinating.

Extremely interactive! You can get as close to animals as you can imagine and even feed them. Animal look healthy and calm, so there should be a proper care for them. Gardens are incredible and cacti and succulents collection is better the in Gardens by the bay in Singapore. I am a true zoo fan and have been to many. This is by far the best from my liking.

#cherryblossom2024 Izu Shaboten Zoo was an unexpected gem during my spring vacation in Japan! 🌵 Located in the scenic Izu Peninsula, this zoo offered a unique blend of animal encounters and botanical wonders.
