SHIZUOKA CITY KANKO NAVI

Shizuoka City, known as the "Model Capital of the World," is dotted with large monuments called "plamoneuments," which are designed to resemble unassembled plastic models.

Features such as mailboxes and public pay phones are rendered to look like model kit parts, characterized by their playful and unique designs.

On "Otomotabi," you can enjoy audio commentary by Norihiro Matsuo himself, the designer of the "Plamonuments."

It’s packed with stories you can only hear here, including the thoughts behind the design details and behind-the-scenes stories!

It’s highly recommended not only for plastic model fans but also for anyone interested in craftsmanship or exploring the city.

Located halfway up Mt. Nihondaira, the Shizuoka Performing Arts Park serves as the home base for the SPAC theater company, established by Shizuoka Prefecture.

Based on the concept of a “park where nature and art coexist,” the theater and rehearsal spaces are built amidst the satoyama landscape, which changes with the seasons.

The park features not only facilities that support the actors’ creative work but also tea fields where visitors can experience tea picking and scenic spots offering breathtaking views of Mount Fuji.

In "Otomatabi," SPAC actors will guide you through the park’s highlights and charms.

Please enjoy a stroll through the park in this special space where nature and art intertwine, while listening to the voices of SPAC’s actors.
