About Shizuoka
Shizuoka is a city on Suruga Bay in tea country, with Mount Fuji on the horizon, a castle park and shrines tied to the shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu.
Shizuoka lies on the Pacific coast of central Japan, on Suruga Bay, with the Southern Alps and Mount Fuji on the horizon. Tokugawa Ieyasu, who unified Japan under his shogunate, retired to Sunpu, as the city was called, and its castle park with moats and stone walls stands in the centre. His first resting place, the Kunozan Toshogu shrine, sits on a hill reached by ropeway from the Nihondaira plateau, which has views over the bay and Fuji.
