- Sumpu Castle Park - The park grounds were once home to Sumpu Castle, built by Tokugawa Ieyasu (1542–1616) in the late sixteenth century. Today, only some stone retaining walls, the stone foundations of the main tower, and portions of the moats remain from the original castle.
- Shizuoka Sengen Shrine - Shizuoka Sengen Shrine is a collective group of three shrines: Kambe Shrine, Sengen Shrine, and Ohtoshimioya Shrine. It was revered as the Suruga Province Soja and received veneration from Tokugawa during the Edo era. The grand and brilliant main buildings are richly adorned with urushi coating. Twenty-six buildings have been designated as national important cultural properties.
- Okabesyuku Ohatago Kashibaya - This traditional Japanese inn represents Okabe-juku and has been registered as a tangible cultural property of Japan.
- Takumishuku Traditional Hand Craft Art Center - Takumishuku, nestled in Shizuoka City, is Japan’s premier destination for traditional crafts. With master artisans on hand and more activities (and delicious bites) than your family can handle, it offers a rare chance to witness and learn about authentic Japan.
- Toro - The Toro Site is an archaeological site of a settlement dating back to the Late Yayoi period, around 2,000 years ago. Discovered during the construction of a munitions factory in 1943, the site garnered significant attention from academic associations as it was the first time remains of rice paddy fields from the Yayoi period were found in Japan. A full-scale excavation from 1947 to 1950 unearthed numerous artifacts, including earthenware and wooden implements, and revealed that the settlement consisted of a dwellings area with remains of houses, storehouses, and other structures, and a rice paddy area. This discovery helped establish the image of Yayoi people as wet rice farmers.
