#Spring0yentrip Ito is a hot spring and sea town on the Izu Peninsula in Shizuoka Prefecture, where you can spend a relaxing time. The first thing I noticed when I arrived was the smell of the sea and the steam from the hot springs floating around the town. At the inn, I soaked in the hot springs that flow directly from the source, and the fatigue of my trip was gradually soothed. At Ito Orange Beach by the sea, the scenery created by the gentle waves and palm trees was somewhat exotic, and it was very pleasant to walk. I also stopped by Tokaikan in the town, and enjoyed the atmosphere of the old hot spring inn along with the wooden architecture that retains the charm of the Showa era. Walking along the Matsukawa Promenade, the willows and stone paving along the river were full of charm, perfect for a leisurely stroll. Ito was a town permeated with tranquility, where you can be soothed by the hot springs and soothed by the scenery of the sea and the town.

A bathhouse that appears in the middle of an old town. You can enjoy the exhibition room and day-trip bathing. When you cross the river, you can see the back of the building, with lanterns hanging, it's like the world of Spirited Away. 【More fun points☝️】 The front is nice, but you should cross the river to see the back! -—————————————————— ◆Building🏠 　Tokaikan 　12-10 Higashimatsubara-cho, Ito City, Shizuoka Prefecture 414-0022 ◆Access🚶 　11 minutes walk from Ito Station ◆Price💰 　200 yen ◆Reservation 　None ◆Photo📷 　OK -————————————————— Retro Stroll | Walking around the town in a kimono ↓Recommended for these people! - I like retro - I want to know where I can wear a kimono👘 - I want to spend my weekends and travels relaxing ————————————————— [Retro Stroll's Thoughts🕰️] "Retro Stroll" started with the desire to make people feel that "old" is "beautiful" and to stop and take a look. There are many wonderful historic buildings in Japan, but they are difficult to maintain and are often demolished. This is true not only for buildings, but also for traditional Japanese objects and techniques. I hope that this will encourage as many people as possible to take a fresh look at old things before they disappear from Japan. If you find a place that catches your eye, please take a retro stroll and take a break! -————————————————— #Domestic Travel Strategy

I mistook it for a hot spring and didn't go inside. There are also exhibits of literary masters such as Yasunari Kawabata, Toson Shimazaki, and Akiko Yosano, and you can freely explore the museum for an admission fee of 200 yen. A beautiful sunrise and sculptures of cranes, turtles, and carp greet you at the entrance. After researching, it seems that the architecture inside was also wonderful. I regret not being able to go inside. 😭 The beauty of the illuminated Tokaikan at night is like Spirited Away. The museum also has a day spa that appears in the manga "Thermae Romae." The view from the Matsukawa Promenade was also wonderful. #DomesticTravel #AtamiTourism #Izu #Ito #IzuTrip #Retro #0YenTripJanuary2025
