Mishima - Where Mount Fuji's Spring Water Runs Through Town
Why Mishima?
Mishima is an ideal base for digital nomads who want nature on their doorstep without giving up easy access to the city.
Sitting at the foot of Mount Fuji, the town is known as the “City of Water” for the cool spring water that flows through its streets all year round. With Tokyo under an hour away, it's a perfect mid- to long-term base for exploring Japan.
Slow down and live by the rhythm of the water, right here in Mishima.
Nature
Snowmelt from Mount Fuji filters through ancient lava and surfaces as crystal-clear springs. Walk the stepping stones of the Genbe River, or take in Fuji from the 400 m Mishima Skywalk.
Lifestyle
A walkable town of shaded canals, the Heian-era Mishima Taisha shrine, and local favourites like spring-water unagi and Mishima croquettes. Life here moves at a gentler pace.
Access
Tokyo is about 45 minutes away by Shinkansen, and the Izuhakone Railway runs straight from the station into the Izu Peninsula and its hot spring towns. Hakone is just over the hills.
