FAQ
Hakone Shrine is renowned for its iconic red torii gate rising dramatically from Lake Ashi, creating a stunning photo opportunity, especially at dawn or dusk. The serene forested grounds, historic main shrine buildings, and tranquil atmosphere offer a spiritual retreat and a deep connection to Japanese tradition and natural beauty.
The 'Gate of Peace' torii at Hakone Shrine, submerged partly in Lake Ashi, is linked to ancient legends involving dragons and spiritual guardians of the lake. It symbolizes protection and prosperity. Visitors often come to pray for safe travels and good fortune, walking through the gate as a symbolic act of passage and purification.
Owakudani, known as the 'Great Boiling Valley,' offers a unique volcanic landscape with active sulfur vents and hot springs. Visitors can witness the impressive geological activity, enjoy panoramic views of Mount Fuji on clear days, and taste the famous black eggs (kuro tamago), believed to extend one's life by seven years.
The eggs at Owakudani turn black because they are boiled in the naturally sulfurous hot springs. The sulfur in the water reacts with the iron in the eggshells, giving them their distinctive black color. Locals believe eating these eggs can extend one's lifespan, with each egg adding seven years.
Yes, Gotemba Premium Outlets offers excellent opportunities to view Mount Fuji, especially from certain areas within the complex on clear days. The outlets are strategically located, providing a spectacular backdrop of Japan's highest peak. Look for designated viewing spots or higher elevations within the shopping area.
To travel between Hakone Shrine and Owakudani, you would typically use a combination of local transportation. From Hakone Shrine (near Moto-Hakone port), you can take a local bus to Togendai, then transfer to the Hakone Ropeway which directly leads to Owakudani. This route offers scenic views of Lake Ashi and the volcanic valley.
Honcho Street itself offers charming views that can frame Mount Fuji beautifully on clear days, particularly with traditional Japanese architecture. For iconic compositions, exploring areas around Lake Ashi or specific viewpoints on the Hakone Ropeway can provide stunning panoramic vistas of Mount Fuji, often with the lake or volcanic landscape in the foreground.
