Ito City
Ito is a city located in the eastern part of Shizuoka Prefecture’s Izu Peninsula. With its year-round mild climate, it is a hot spring bath resort that has flourished since the Edo Period (1603-1867), when it was known for its therapeutic baths. While in Ito, you can stay at the former Inaba Ryokan (currently known as K’s House Ito Onsen), a Japanese-style inn that is also a nationally designated Important Cultural Property, or the Kawana Hotel, home to Japan’s first full-scale golf course. The city has long been a popular destination for businesspeople, writers, and artists. Ito is located conveniently close to Tokyo, only about 4 hours by car or train. It is a tourist destination filled with charm and surrounded by nature, where you can enjoy both the sea and the mountains.
