【Izu Highlands】Exploring Summer Scenery Using Public Transportation Only

The Izu Highlands, rumored to have appeared in the famous anime "Your Name," were bustling with tourists from all over the world♪
While most visitors seem to prefer traveling by car to explore the area, it turns out you can easily get around using only public transportation (^^)

🚃 From Tokyo Station: About 2 hours via the "Odoriko" train
🗻 Omuro Mountain: 20 minutes by bus from Izu Highlands Station
🌊 Jogasaki Coast: 20 minutes by bus from Izu Highlands Station

At Omuro Mountain, the wait for the ropeway can be as long as 3 hours during peak times. It's best to visit early in the morning or during the calmer hours in the evening☀️
Right next to Omuro Mountain is the Shaboten Animal Park, where you can interact with various animals. Visiting both spots together could be a great way to spend your time🦒✨ (They also offer discounts for tickets to Omuro Mountain and the Shaboten Animal Park!)
