The Izu Wasabi Visitor Center is a facility established to disseminate various information about Izu wasabi and to facilitate interaction with the local community. The center clearly communicates the history of wasabi cultivation in Izu, the reasons for producing high-quality wasabi, and the key points of the “Traditional Cultivation of Shizuoka Water Wasabi” recognized as a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System, using videos and graphic panels. It also provides information on the rules and precautions for visiting the wasabi fields. Since the wasabi fields do not have toilets or waste disposal facilities and are not fully equipped for tourism, visitors are asked to be considerate. Additionally, the center is considering offering taste comparison experiences for those who have never tried fresh wasabi or who want to experience the difference between it and the wasabi paste commonly used. Please come and experience the authentic aroma, color, and refreshing spiciness of real fresh wasabi.
