(蒲原宿お休み処)
"These are ruins of a hatago used under the name ""Izumiya"" during the Edo period. The building, said to have been built in the Tenpo period (1830-1844), is a place where travelers going along the Tokaido Highway would stay, and did not collapse even during the Ansei great earthquakes such that it maintains its original appearance today. The sign frame and the handrail on the second floor are the same as when originally constructed. In the past, it was one building, but at present, the four spaces on the left are individual residences, and the two spaces on the right are open as rest areas. Also, inside the building, you can experience dyeing and weaving, silverworking, clay crafts, and more."

Shizuoka Areas
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.
