- Fuji Fifth Station
Mount Fuji Fifth Station is located on the mountainside at an altitude of 2,305 meters, surrounded by virgin forests. There are many specialty shops and a historic shrine in the area. If you love walking, you may want to walk around and feel the white clouds floating under your feet from the fifth station, and you can also see Mount Fuji up close! Depending on the road conditions on that day, climbing Mt. Fuji may not be possible. Change the attraction to Kawaguchiko Herb Garden. There is a large greenhouse with hundreds of plants and an outdoor courtyard. On the large terrace in the park, you can take clear photos of the entire Mount Fuji when the weather is good.
- Lake Kawaguchi
Lake Kawaguchi is the most easily accessible tourist attraction around Mount Fuji. It is one of the Fuji Five Lakes and part of the Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park. It is the lake with the longest shoreline and the lowest elevation among the Fuji Five Lakes. You can stroll freely along the shore of Lake Kawaguchi and enjoy the view of Mount Fuji. Add the matcha experience here. Experience making matcha with a local teacher, drink a cup, and experience authentic Japanese culture.
- Oshino Hakkai
Oshino Hakkai, known as the Jiuzhaigou of Japan, is a group of springs located between Lake Yamanaka and Lake Kawaguchi in Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan. It got its name because of the eight clear springs scattered in an orderly manner. Oshino has a beautiful natural environment, with irises in May, lupines in June, sunflowers in July, and autumn cherry blossoms in August; eight sparkling springs and the beautiful Mount Fuji blend into one, creating a delicate and beautiful scenery.
