Izu Islands
Izu-Shoto

Map
Izu Islands consists of islands from Oshima at the north to Sofu-Iwa (Sofugan) at the southernmost.
We used to call Izu Seven Islands, which include seven islands in the northern part of Izu Islands: Oshima, Toshima, Niijima, Kozushima, Miyakejima, Mikurajima, and Hachijojima, and it was used with Izu Islands interchangeably.
Now, they are called "Tokyo Islands," which includes all inhabited islands of the Izu Islands and Ogasawara Islands. They all belong to the Tokyo Metropolitan government.
They are: Izu Seven Islands, Shikinejima, Aogashima of the Izu Islands, Chichijima, and Hahajima of Ogasawara Islands.
