Tour Photo Hotspots

Capture the scenic beauty of Izumigaya in photographs as a memento of your journey. Explore the most photogenic landmarks unique to this area, deeply connected with the neighborhood shrines and temples.

Start your photo journey at one of the 33 Kannon Pilgrimage sites of Shizuoka, the Yakushido Senju Kannon Hall. Visit the hall, and pay respects to the Senju Kannon and Yakushi Nyorai statues.

The highlight is the giant Ginkgo tree, over 300 years old. Capture its majestic presence, a testament to the passage of time.

Next, head to Togeppo Saioku-ji Temple. Notice a deep tranquility unfold as you pass through the gate. There are numerous sights to behold — the garden, inheriting the aesthetic of Ginkaku-ji, the charming facade of the Saioku-ji Temple, and a pond modeled after the Big Dipper. Let your heart be your guide for this serene photo spot. 

Mt. Tenchuzan

Climb the gentle slope towards Mt. Tenchuzan and visit the famous Kansho-in Temple.

At the gate, a row of Jizo statues greets you with an array of unique expressions. Their red hats add a charming touch, offering rare photo angles for a delightful shot. Take a look at each one to find your favorite!

A statue of Enma, King of Hell, welcomes you at the top of the stairs, housed in the main hall. 

His expression, striking yet strangely welcoming, is an unforgettable sight to see.

Naturally, being present and engraving the sights in your memory is goal number one, but don’t forget to enjoy your photoshoot. Taken amidst the rich history of this place, you’ll be looking back and talking about your visit for years to come.
