The Izu Peninsula is situated in the southeast of Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan, and is widely known among the Chinese people due to Yasunari Kawabata's novel "The Dancing Girl of Izu." Not only does it boast hot springs, coastal landscapes, and mountain ranges, but it is also home to many popular local specialties. Additionally, the peninsula falls within the boundaries of the Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park.
