Atami
This is a 5-hour course. Guests walk along the street of Atami and take a look at many sightseeing spots.
Atami lies at the northeastern base of the Izu Peninsula, less than an hour west of Tokyo by Shinkansen. Due to its proximity to Tokyo, Atami has long been a popular seaside resort town with plenty of hot springs and ryokan in addition to museums and other cultural heritage sites.
Atami's most conspicuous man-made feature is its high-rise buildings, mainly hotels, which give this small town of just over 40,000 inhabitants the look of a city at least two or three times the population. On closer inspection, though, a lot of these buildings have an air of yesterday about them.
