Stretching from the top of Japan's tallest spire, Mt. Fuji, to the bottom of its deepest bay, Suruga Bay, Shizuoka Prefecture enjoys a mild climate that has earned it the moniker "kingdom of food." Boasting the largest variety of agricultural and fisheries products, the prefecture reigns supreme over all Japan. The prefecture is especially renowned for its farm products, including vegetables, fruits (mandarin oranges, melons, etc.), green tea, and wasabi, as well as marine products (Japanese spiny lobster, splendid alfonsino, sakura shrimp, whitebait, oysters, nori seaweed, farmed eels, and more) caught off the rocky shores of Izu Peninsula, Suruga Bay's deep sea waters, and Lake Hamana as well.
Shizuoka is home to Japan's most beautiful mountain, the iconic tower known as Mt. Fuji, which has captured the hearts of people everywhere. On June 12, 2013 Mt. Fuji was added to the World Heritage List along with Shizuoka's Miho no Matsubara (pine grove). Revered as a holy place and the object of worship since ancient times, Mt. Fuji has been a source of inspiration for countless artists who have captured its exquisite beauty from Miho no Matsubara, the magnificent pine grove in which the legend of Hagoromo is rooted. The mountain's natural environment and beautiful landscape have nurtured a culture that reflects the beliefs and aesthetics of the Japanese people.
