Lake Hamana

It's a lovely park with many beautiful flowers and lovely elderly staff. We were abit offseason, bit late for sakuras and too early for wisteria (which was a pity). The tulips were in full bloom though! Note if you come from Hamamatsu train station, it's a direct bus 30 from the bus terminal outside the train station. However, it's a 45min ride and bus frequency is not that often. Advise to check before you go. Tip: note google maps will tell you to alight at the 'zoo' stop which is the other entrance. You can get off a few stops earlier at the western gate and save yourself a long walk. Look out for the Flowerpark on the opposite side of the road.

1. Convenient ordering and collection process: After booking, collect your exchange ticket at Hong Kong Airport using your voucher, and then exchange it at the JR station upon arrival. 2. Excellent value if your day trip includes two attractions: Includes JR, bus, and two ferry options (on a clear day, you can see Mount Fuji in the distance). You can even see dolphins on the day of your ferry trip (S Pluse Ferry). 3. We recommend extending your JR usage days to visit more attractions.
