Only 2 hours away from Tokyo, there is a peninsula called Izu Peninsula. One town in the east of the peninsula called Kawazu, is known for Kawazu cherry blossoms.

Izu has many hot-springs that you can visit all around the year and some beaches for the summer days. You can also make a day trip if you plan well.

I visited Kawazu, Atagawa, and Atami in East Izu peninsula.

  1. thank you Ken chan for showing this. Unfortunately i will not have time to go to Izu peninsula this time round. I did not know there were cherry blossoms in Kawazu so i did not even plan to go to Izu๐Ÿ˜ข
    Perhaps my next trip to Tokyo.

  2. Oh wow! Are these recent recordings? The cherry blossom has already begun. I'm not flying to Japan for another three weeks, so I hope I'm not too late for the cherry blossoms by then! I'm starting to get nervous. ๐Ÿ˜•

  3. I'll be arriving in May so I'll unfortunately miss out on the cherry blossoms. But I was lucky enough to see the autumn colours in Kyoto last November.

  4. Hi kenchan, i will visit osaka kyoto tokyo this november (08 nov-21 nov). In that period, can i see autumn colors?
