[2025 Ito Attraction] Travel Guide for Izu Granpal Park (Updated Apr)

Izu Granpal Park Roadside station Granpal Port and the ruins of Saikoen A roadside station adjacent to a large amusement park. There are foot baths and souvenir shops with a variety of food. Nearby are the ruins of Saikoen, which is irresistible for fans. Saikoen (a restaurant) was featured in 1980 for its unique building, but it was no longer in use around 2004 and is now a ruin, with the rear of the building being used as a parking lot. You cannot enter the building, but you can see a little from the window. The "Primitive Art Museum," which was in the same building, has some of the exhibits and explanatory signs left as they are, giving it a nice atmosphere. ■Location Izu Granpal Park 1090 Futo, Ito City, Shizuoka Prefecture ■Access About 85km from Atsugi IC on the Tomei Expressway (via Odawara Atsugi Road and National Route 135) #Domestic travel #Granpal Park #Ruins #Shizuoka Prefecture #Shizuoka

#2024wish Parking is free for Illumination visiting hours. Parking lot looks big too. You’re supposed to retrieve paper ticket at ticket counter by showing the e-mail sent to you when you buy ticket online. Rebate is available online. Many fun attractions, separate charge - cycling, cart, balloon, flying chair and children's playground (FOC) and many others. Lots of photo spots also. The illumination is fabulous. The laser light show is fantastic. In 2024, I want to come back here.

This is by far my most favorite illumination in Japan. I went here in 2021, and I would love to go back. This was the 7th Season of the Grand Illumination at Izu Granpal Park in Shizuoka Prefecture. You can try out different rides if you have plenty of time. The highlights of the illumination includes the "Light and Sound Show" where illuminations dance with the music. The "Full Color Laser Show'' which creates a fantastical world where the aurora appears to be moving. And, the "Gran Vision Show'' which is a collaboration between a large 60m wide LED vision and sound. You can enjoy the collaboration of music and light from 8:00 PM ~ Closing time. This is the perfect place to enjoy your Christmas holiday this year.

This time I will introduce Gran Illumination in Izu. The illuminations themselves were amazing, but I also recommend it because the area is large and people don't get too crowded. ◇Grand Illumination's recommended points◇ ① Hands-on illuminations At Gran Illumination, you can enjoy attractions and illuminations at the same time, such as gliding on a zip line over the illuminations and sliding down a slide. ② The park is large The area is about the size of two Tokyo Domes. When I went there, there were quite a few cars in the parking lot, but once I entered the park, it seemed like there were very few people, probably because it was so large. ③ The free shows are amazing There were three types of light shows that you can see for free, every 10 minutes. Gran Illumination has been ranked first in the professional performance category of the illumination awards for three consecutive years. ④ You can interact with animals There is a small petting hut in the illuminations where you can interact with animals. You could also experience feeding them♪ ⑤ There are dinosaurs There were many lit-up dinosaurs. We walked around, but it seems you can also race around in go-karts. ⑥Lots of playground equipment There are lots of playground equipment for children to enjoy in Granpal Park. There were no children around during the illuminations, so I went back to my childhood and climbed up the playground equipment and slid down the slide. The merry-go-round at night also had a nice atmosphere♪ #tripmemory2022 #illuminations #Izu #Izutrip #IzuKogen #Shizuoka #Shizuokatourism #Shizuokatrip
