Blending art and tradition, this lovely cultural day out begins with an interesting coach drive.
The Tokaido Hiroshige Art Museum is a showplace of ukiyo-e art, or woodblock prints. View more than 1,300 ukiyo-e exhibits, many by Hiroshige Utagawa (1797-1858) — one of the best-known Edo-period ukiyo-e artists and famous for his captivating landscapes. Learn how to make the prints and the natural materials that produce such dramatic colors.
Continue to a traditional tea ceremony. The scent of the tea soothes your soul as you sit down to participate in a choreographed ritual handed down through generations. A Japanese green tea called matcha is accompanied by a sweet.
Next up is Miho-no-Matsubara — a picturesque pine grove distinguished for its scenic beauty. Admire the pine-forested coastline along Suruga Bay and take in some grand views of Mt Fuji from here (weather permitting).
Notes:
Views of Mt Fuji are weather-dependent. Weather and atmospheric conditions vary; no guarantee is offered with regard to visibility or views on any particular day. Wear comfortable walking shoes. Terrain includes sand and uneven surfaces. You must remove your shoes at one or more location(s). Bring local currency, as many vendors do not accept credit cards or US dollars. Unfamiliar accents can be challenging; feel free to ask your guide to repeat or elaborate on information, and to speak more slowly so you can fully comprehend and converse. Tour does not operate on Mondays. Tour sequence may vary.
