In this episode, we spotlight Shizuoka Prefecture, celebrated for its abundant natural beauty and Mt. Fuji, Japan’s tallest peak, a major draw for visitors from both Japan and overseas. Our traveler follows the historic Tokaido road, the route linking Edo and Kyoto that has been used for more than 400 years since the Edo period. Along the way, local residents greet him with warm hospitality and regional specialties. He savors a steaming bowl of oden and fragrant green tea, and uncovers traditional dyed handicrafts.
