Shizuoka
Shizuoka City Museum of History
"Shizuoka City History Museum," a new landmark in Shizuoka City, stands approximately a 15-minute walk from JR Shizuoka Station. Exhibits explore the history of Shizuoka from multiple perspectives, including Sunpu and Tokugawa Ieyasu, whose leadership brought political, economic, and cultural prosperity; the Imagawa clan, who raised Ieyasu during childhood; and the Tokaido road system established under his rule. Highlights include remains of a late Sengoku-period road and stone walls displayed in their excavated state, along with displays depicting Sunpu about 400 years ago during Ieyasu’s governance and scenes of everyday life at the time. Located near the Higashigomon Gate of Sunpu Castle, the museum also serves as a key base for tracing Ieyasu's legacy, along with Sunpu Castle Park.
You can spend a lot of time just looking at the exhibits at museums and art galleries, but why not take part in the exhibitions and events held at various locations? Its charm is overwhelming, and some fans say they have fallen in love with museums and art galleries because of the special exhibitions. It is also refreshing to visit local shrines and temples and admire the Buddhist statues and gardens. There are some temples where you can experience meditation, sutra copying, etc., so why not knock on the gate and try a little spiritual training?

川奈ステンドグラス美術館
The "Kawana Stained Glass Museum", located in Izu Highlands, Ito City, Shizuoka Prefecture, exhibits stained glass from the 19th century and the present day. The interior of the chapel-like museum, with sunlight filtering through the stained glass, creates a fantastical space, almost like a jewel box. Inside the building, reminiscent of an English manor house, you will be captivated by the many antique stained glass pieces.
