    Shizuoka Fujieda-shi Makinohara-shi
    "This is the common name for the 28-kilometer road connecting ""Fujieda-shuku"", the 22nd post town of 53 Stations of the Tokaido, and Sagara in Makinohara City. The name was given because Tanuma Okitsugu, who advanced in life from being a kosho to an Elder for the 9th generation Tokugawa Ieshige, prepared the road. Known for the ""Kansei Reforms"", one of the three major reforms of the Edo period, Okitsugi improved public finance by organizing social capital, such as by developing mines and rice paddies and commerce. The present road is paved, so you cannot see what it looked like in the past, but there is a stone monument which represents the origin and is close to ""Oganeke"", a building from roughly 300 years ago which has been designated a National Important Cultural Property."

With the giant Pacific Ocean to the south and the great Mount Fuji to the north, Shizuoka prefecture is blessed with some of the best views the country has to offer. The white sand beaches of the Izu Peninsula are a rare find on mainland Japan, neighbored by beautiful cliffs, tumbling hills, and natural hot springs. As Japan’s largest producer of green tea, the age-old tradition of tea drinking is ubiquitous in Shizuoka, from the miles of tea fields to the old tea houses hosting traditional tea ceremonies.
