Fukuroi

Fukuroi has served as a post town in western Shizuoka Prefecture since the Edo period. Fukuroi-juku was the 27th of the 53 stations on the Tōkaidō, the road linking Edo with Kyoto, and this historic role still shapes the city’s identity. The municipality reaches the Enshū-nada coast on the Pacific Ocean, while its inland districts lie on a broad coastal plain. Kasuisai, a Soto Zen temple founded in 1394, is known for seasonal displays of Hina dolls. Modern Fukuroi also contains Shizuoka Stadium Ecopa, a venue used during the 2002 FIFA World Cup.
