MATSUZAKI TOWN

Hello,everyone!
I will talk about my home town, Matsuzaki.



The green one is Matsuzaki town



The town located in along the seashore in southwestern Izu Peninsula in Shizuoka Prefecture. The size is 85.23km² and 64% of the area is forest.The weather is warmer than Wakayama city. It doesn't snow there.



Matsuzaki town has a lot of field and nature. There are many cherry trees. The town's catchphrase is ”flowers and a romantic village”
The name of Matsuzaki derived from ''curved pine-lined shores'' or ''place like beak protruding''.

Matsuzaki is famous for cherry blossoms.
People use very big barrel to sozk in salt.



Matsuzaki produces 80 percent of sakuraba.
We use it for sakuraba-mochi, cookies, ice cream, candies, and so on.
They are so good.

Matsuzaki is good for sight seeing but the population is fewest in Shizuoka and the tourists has decreased.
So, please come to Matsuzaki town!
