Izu Rice Field Art

Izu Rice Field Art

VIEWPOINT

Izu Rice Field Art is an artwork made by the local farmers of Amagi using rice. 2021 featured the “Dancing Girl”, a famous novel set in the nearby Joren Falls area. The viewing event usually starts around mid-June, with the best viewing season being July.

There didn’t seem to be set parking for the attraction, although there were two parking spaces nearby which were being used to quickly view the art.

Review

If you have a little spare time and are around in June/July, then why not drop by this great piece of artwork. Many areas in Japan are famous for their rice field art. Although Amagi doesn’t quite hold up to the reputation of the great Aomori artwork, it’s still interesting to come and view it every year. Unfortunately we couldn’t see much parking, however taking a few pictures takes very little time so the two parking spaces we saw should be ok.

RECOMMENDED ROUTE:

Izu Rice Field Art is easiest to get to by car as public transport on the West side of Izu can be quite sporadic. If you’re travelling by public transport then take the train from Mishima to Shuzenji on the Izu Hakone Tetsudo Line. Switch to the bus bound for Kawazu (河津駅) and get off at Yaguma (矢熊橋).
