Top 50 things to do and attractions in Fujinomiya

Breathtaking and unforgettable experience! Seeing Mt. Fuji in person is truly magical. The view is stunning from every angle, especially on a clear day or during sunrise and sunset. Whether you visit the 5th Station, Lake Kawaguchi, or view it from afar, the scenery is peaceful and awe-inspiring. It’s a must-see landmark that captures the beauty of Japan’s nature and spirit. A perfect spot for photos, hiking, and unforgettable memories!

A reminder that Mt. Fuji represents strength, resilience, and enduring character, similar to the steadfastness of the mountain itself. A spiritual symbol of spiritual growth and enlightenment, a national symbol of Japan's strength, and a source of artistic inspiration.

Stunning and majestic. was lucky the day was sunny and could see the snow capped apex. amazingly symmetrical volcano.

Don't underestimate this place, some may so it's a walk in the park but it's not. If you're not fit, you will suffer, especially if you plan on ascending and descending on the same day which is what I had done. I do a lot of walk and hike but this was the first proper mountain I had ever climbed. It wasn't so much of my fitness that was an issue, but rather, the altitude sickness. And yes, altitude sickness is real! About ⅔ into the climb, I started feeling the affects of it. For every few steps I went up in elavation, I kept stopping because I felt like hurling. Eventually, I threw up three times, at three different stages of the latter part of the climb. My companion on the other hand, who had never done this let alone walking or hiking, didn't suffer a bit. So it does differ in affects, from person to person. But having said that, do stay overnight and acclimatise for God's sake, as it will make the climb more pleasurable.

The gorgeous Mount Fuji! Blessed to witness this volcano peak on a clear day. One can never be tired watching this view the whole day.

Visiting Mt. Fuji is a breathtaking and unforgettable experience. Seeing this majestic peak in person feels truly magical — its beauty shines from every angle, especially at sunrise or sunset. Whether you’re admiring it from the 5th Station, the shores of Lake Kawaguchi, or from afar, the scenery is serene and awe-inspiring. A true symbol of Japan’s natural beauty and spirit — perfect for photos, hikes, and lifelong memories.

Unforgettable, an amazing experience. From the 5th station caught a glimpse of Mt. Fuji, it was raining and cloud covered most of the time. Plenty other spots to see Mt. Fuji

A holy place to visit while in Fujinomiya. At the entrance is a large Tori gate, walking further you’ll see the temple and some people offering prayers so be mindful when taking pictures. There is also a small lake just nearby.

Fujisan Hongu Sengen Taisha Shrine in Fujinomiya was really peaceful. I loved the bright orange color of the shrine and the whole area had a very calm vibe. The walk around the grounds was serene, with mostly locals and not too many tourists, which made it feel more authentic. There was even some kind of event going on when I visited, though I wasn’t sure what it was. It’s a cozy spot to take your time, admire the bridge, the garden, the park, and of course the shrine itself. Not a place with tons to do, but definitely worth stopping by if you’re already in the area.

Very pretty shrine during cherry blossom season, and wide spaces for walking. There is a pond where people prepare themselves for their hike up moun Fuji, so it was interesting to see the locals interact with it here

This is a lovely place to visit. I recommend going here with a good tour guide like we did as we learnt so much about the tradition and religion from him.

Gorgeous shrine and beautiful scenery. Cool yourself with crystalline water from Mt Fuji. Excellent photo opportunities too

Great place to experience the temple ambiance near Mt. Fuji. The temple is very picturesque. I would say the whole experience was typical as with other temples. The place is quiet, good for praying and contemplation. The colors in winter are very muted accented with the orange color of most of the temple buildings.

WoW! This is one of the best Shinto Shrines I’ve ever visited. Very large grounds with ponds of super clear water and it is very cold. Many smaller shrines here along with the main shrine. Super well kept, paid parking available. The small river running next to the shrine grounds is beautiful. I would love to visit again.

Very affordable! All kids under 15 are free! Its a great exhibit you could get through it all in about 1 hr if rushing but could spend 2+ hrs if you watched all the shows and read everything. I'd say overall it was worth it especially if the weather is good and you can see mount fuji!

The Mt. Fuji World Heritage Center was a really cool experience. The view from the top is amazing, especially if the sky is clear and there aren’t any clouds. Inside, you get to learn a lot about Mt. Fuji in an immersive way that makes the visit feel special. There’s also an ice cream shop inside, and the vanilla ice cream was surprisingly really good. A nice little bonus. One thing I really appreciated is that they offered free wheelchairs and even free entrance for seniors, which was great for our father who’s over 70. Overall, it was an enjoyable stop. Between the views, the exhibits, and the small details, it’s definitely worth checking out if you’re in the area.

A beautiful and informative museum dedicated to the history and geology of Mt Fuji. Video panels spiral upwards ending at the top gorgeous view of the majestic mountain. People lay down on the shiny white floor to take interesting reflective photos. Small but nice gift shop and snack bar. Inexpensive parking across the street.

If you want to ascend Mt Fuji virtually without getting out of breath, this is the way to do it! Inside is a spiral ramp with curved screens that show the views and terrain from the mountain at different elevations from sea level to top. There are also interactive displays on several floors on the way up if you need a rest while climbing. Their website acutally has great photos of what you can expect to see inside. There may be an optional special exhibit (not to be confused with the included cinema room on the same floor). You pay for a ticket at the time of admission and it actually cost more than the base admission charge, so you have to decide if it's worth it depending on what's exhibited. With the favorable exchange rate, admission for both was still only about $6.50 (700yen included general admission and the exhibit). What's also great about Fujinomiya: after you visit the center, If you wander along the river path towards the mountain for two blocks and hang a left, you'll find a small food court on your left, the highlight of which is a water fountain that allows you to drink spring water from Mt Fuji! After you enjoy a meal, Shiraito falls is only a 30 minute bus ride away. Take a left and continue along the same street for about 25m to the bus stop on the same side of the street (the bus will be heading to your left. It's a lot of lefts, haha). We used Shizuoka as our base to get to Fujinomiya for its proximity to both the Shinkansen and Tokaido/Minobu lines. Although the Shin-Fuji Shinkansen station is closer to Fujinomiya, it's about a 1.5km walk to the Minobu line station to catch the train; if you stay near the Shizuoka station (Hotel Associa Shizuoka is great and super-close to the station), both train lines are right there in the same station.

We went on a Saturday around 3pm and there was no wait to get in. I did not reserve tickets in advance but it was ok. The exhibit is really cool walking up the spiral path to see the different exhibits about Mt Fuji. There are two lookouts to see Mt Fuji if you’re lucky and the skies are clear it is a stunning view. The library closes earlier so check that out first.

Hiked Mt. Fuji before coming here and eventually learnt a lot about Mt. Fuji. Particularly interested in how Mt. Fuji is incorporated in Japanese history and culture. You will find lots of interesting facts about Mt. Fuji. On the highest level, you can see a very beautiful view of Mt. Fuji (unfortunately I came when it was cloudy but I can imagine how beautiful it is). It’s a perfect place to capture the mountain since Fujinomiya is the closest city to Mt. Fuji compared to other places (e.g. Fujiyoshida, Yamanakako, Gotemba). Staff is very friendly and guide me when I have questions. There is a cafe and souvenir shop which I think pretty unique since I couldn’t find the merchandises in other places.

The building is a work of art, with a Japanese torii gate out front. Inside, Mt. Fuji looks like a masterpiece painting. The staff were really friendly, and I totally fell in love with this spot.

I recently visited Shiraito Falls in Japan, and it was an absolutely magical experience. The falls were stunningly beautiful, surrounded by lush greenery, and the area was incredibly peaceful. The maintenance of the site was top-notch, and the whole atmosphere was just calming and refreshing. I highly recommend it!

We visited Shiraito Falls on a cloudy and rainy day, but despite the weather, it turned out to be such a memorable experience for all seven of us in the family. The soft drizzle actually made the surroundings feel more magical as the mist from the falls blended beautifully with the fog, giving the whole place a dreamlike atmosphere. The sound of the cascading water was so soothing, and the lush greenery around us looked even more vibrant under the rain. What made the visit even more special was that, just for a brief moment, the clouds parted and we caught a glimpse of Mount Fuji in the distance. It felt like a small gift from nature after waiting patiently in the rain. The walking paths were easy to follow, though a little slippery, and we took our time enjoying every view along the way. Even with wet shoes and umbrellas in hand, we couldn’t help but smile. There was something peaceful about being surrounded by nature, hearing the water roar, and feeling the cool mist on our faces. Shiraito Falls truly lived up to its name as one of Japan’s most beautiful waterfalls, rain and all.

Shiraito Waterfall is a peaceful and refreshing stop in Karuizawa. The waterfall is not tall, but it stretches widely across the rock face and flows in thin, silky streams that really do resemble white threads. The surrounding forest makes the whole area feel calm and secluded, and the short walk from the car park is very manageable. A great place to enjoy nature, take a slow stroll, and unwind from the busy town areas. Beautiful in every season, especially during cooler months when the mist adds to the atmosphere.

The place felt magical, absolutely stunning! Just being there was so relaxing and calming. It’s a small area, so there’s not a lot to do right at the spot, but it's worth a visit if you're nearby. We stopped by on the way to our paragliding activity and loved the peaceful vibe. There's also a nearby farm that's great for a family outing. Definitely recommend checking it out if you're in the area! There wasn't any entry fee, just the car parking fee, which was 500 yen

Very nice place with amazing views. From here you can also go up to the Shiraito Natural Park with lovely views and if you are lucky and have clear skies, you can take amazing pictures with mount Fuji in the background. Recommend going early in the morning if you also want a good view of Fuji.

A short drive from Lake Tanuki if you are there to get a view of Fujisan. The waterfall was so beautiful in the fall. We went there mid November so the foliage was still not in full effect but the waterfall itself is breathtaking! You can park at the waterfall official parking lot and pay 500Y each for entry fee and parking fee. You can catch a glimpse of fujisan from the parking lot if you’re lucky!

There are many waterfalls in Japan called Shiraito Falls. This one is quite large. You can see Mt. Fuji, and the whole area is a World Heritage Site, so it's in a different league. It looks like it's full of foreigners. Everyone is well-mannered. It's pretty crowded, so it must be a popular tourist spot. You can also see Tokidome Falls. The motorcycle parking lot closest to the waterfall costs 100 yen. There is a larger parking lot a little further from the waterfall, but it costs 200 yen. As it has become a tourist spot, there are several restaurants and toilets.

Beautiful lake. One round is 3.3km, there is dedicated road for bike and walking.

The view was so unreal it was out of a dream! So worth a drive to see Fujisan from this side. We arrived late morning and there was no crowd!

A quiet place to see Mt. Fuji, though it’s a pity for me that I didn’t see it when I arrived. So many cloudy days in April 😿 BTW, free parking here. And don’t stay overnight due to bears.

very very beautiful mount fuji from here, the scenery was amazing, a quiet place to chill and enjoy the vibe of mount fuji

Calm and pleasant. Nice walking paths. Great Mt. Fuji views. Pictures from mid-Nov 2023.

Magical place. A huge beautiful lake surrounded by nature. If you are lucky you can take a great shot of mount Fuji.

Fantastic views in this area, not least of Mount Fuji (apparently, you can see the "double diamond Fuji" phenomenon from here). Beautiful lake with a campground and, according to a sign, an onsen (I haven't tried it). An hour by bus from Fujinomiya Station and it's on the same bus route as the Shiraito Falls, so you could visit both places in a single day trip.

must try fujinomiya yakisoba! it has plenty of cabbage and pork lard stir fried in and smells amazing even if you are just walking by. theh also give you a small paper cup to drink from the fujisan's natural spring water basin!

A little bit cue because of a New Year’s holiday. Noodle was good.

Service is good but bloggers over exaggerated. The noodle taste bad compared to other countries fried noodle. If they claimed this is the best fried noodle in japan, then means Japan doesnt know how to cook fried noodle

Famous Yakisoba shop serving a local yakisoba speciality. 450yen for the regular size which was enough for me. The yakisoba plate was delicious. A must visit if you are in the area. Free wifi available

Got the basic yakisoba. Tasty but not overwhelmingly delicious. Staff were friendly though.

Great little yakisoba shop, definitely try the mixed chili pepper version if you like a good kick.

The Yakisoba was good wouldn’t say out of this world but definitely good enough to try if you haven’t before, the place is arranged like an outdoor food court so there a lot of shops here with different menus so it’s perfect if you wanna try different types of dishes at a single place, the prices are pretty reasonable too.

Going to this place by bus actually amazing. You can see the top of the Mt. Fuji right along the way to this station. but not everyday Mt. Fuji is visible it depends on the weather and the season. It can covered by cotton candy that you can’t see anything. Note: few restaurants available in the area. Restroom also available but you need to pay 100 yen. I saw some horses too but I’m not sure if they are for rent. There also a shrine at the back that you can visit. Souvenirs? Lot of souvenirs available from magnet to keychain, tee and food. Lower your expectations

Came here as part of a tour and we were extremely lucky to get good weather and see Mount Fuji. There are many shops here selling beautiful postcards and posters, and some charge you 100 yen to use their bathroom. It is 28th October today and some leaves are already changing colour ❤️

Nice observatory point. We could not go further up from here owing to poor weather. Saw the Fuji up close and on the opposite side as well the views are amazing. Lovely spot. There was a souvenir shop nearby, purchased some fridge magnets and snacks, also toilet is also nearby, all clean and fine.

The start of many a journey to the top of Mt Fuji. There are plenty of things to buy food wise and souvenirs. There are a few restaurants. You can also hire hiking gear here. There is also a limited number of lockers. But beware the shops do not stay open to late. There is accommodation that you can stay in. I would probably say book in advance. The bus also runs up here from the town below as well as other buses that come direct from Shinjuku.

We, a group of 15 Malaysian hikers, rolled into Fuji Subaru Line 5th Station (2,305m) by bus from Kawaguchiko Station on 3 August 2025 at 9:15 am. The ride took about an hour, smooth and scenic, with the mountains slowly revealing themselves as we got closer. I tucked my return ticket safely in my bag, already knowing it would feel very different holding it again after the climb. This spot is the highest point on Mt. Fuji you can reach by car or bus, and stepping off the bus, I couldn’t help but feel thankful for that convenience. At the same time, I thought about the old pilgrims who used to start at the very base, walking for days before even reaching this altitude. Their journey was not just physical—it was spiritual. That thought instantly gave the place a sense of weight and meaning. A Place with History and Spirit In the past, climbers followed the “stations” (gōme) marked along the pilgrimage route. The 5th Station only became a major hub after the Subaru Line road opened in 1964, bringing thousands of modern hikers here every summer. Yet, even with the convenience of buses and shops, the Komitake Shrine nearby still whispers of older times, when people came here to purify themselves and pray before heading into the clouds. First Impressions – A Village in the Clouds The atmosphere at Station 5 was unlike anywhere else—a small mountain village buzzing with energy. Shops sold everything from hiking gear to keychains, steaming bowls of curry rice, and hot noodles. Tourists were snapping photos against the sea of clouds, while serious hikers were sorting out their packs and lacing up their boots. Yes, it was crowded, even a bit too commercial at times, but the excitement in the air was contagious. Like many others, I joined the tradition of picking up a wooden hiking stick, attaching a small flag, and stamping it for the first time. Holding it in my hands felt more than symbolic—it was as if I was carrying a piece of history with me, one that would collect the story of this climb, step by step. Gearing Up for the Ascent We spent about an hour at the station, partly to adjust to the thinner air and partly to take it all in. Our Ohana guides gathered us for a safety briefing, walking us through the Yoshida Trail and sharing tips for pacing, resting, and staying safe. I downloaded the official Fuji hiking app, which turned out to be surprisingly handy for tracking progress and checking our altitude. Each of us also received a small wooden souvenir with a stamp and a green wristband—practical tokens that doubled as reminders of the journey we were about to begin. The wristband was especially important, as we had to show it at the main gate before stepping onto the trail. Reflections at the Gateway Standing at 5th Station felt like standing at a crossroads. Behind us was the comfort of shops, food, and the crowd’s noise. Ahead lay the silence of the mountain, the challenge of thin air, and the uncertainty of the path. The moment was both ordinary and profound—just another stop for some, but for us, it was the gateway to something greater. After final checks, quick encouragements, and a few nervous smiles, we showed our wristbands and walked past the gate. The climb had officially begun. Fuji Subaru Line 5th Station is more than a rest stop—it’s where adventure, history, and spirituality meet. A little touristy, yes, but also unforgettable. The perfect threshold before stepping onto Japan’s most iconic mountain.

It was very windy, cold and foggy. At that time the fog was very thick. But luckily the wind pushes the fogs away so we can managed to see the peak of Mt Fuji. Very clean and fresh air helps refresh the body and mind. Beautiful mountain scenery along the road uphill is trully relaxing. At the 5th Station, we can find some souvenir shops, cafe and restaurant with traditional japanese food. Just take a seat, relax and enjoy the views.

Great views of Mt. Fuji and easy access to washrooms and food. A bit of a drive to get up here but well worth it for the pictures. No one in our group had any trouble with the altitude or altitude sickness. It is a bit of a walk from the stores to the bus parking so make sure you leave extra time to get back to your bus.

We went on a Monday in late October, and it wasn’t too packed. At most we waited an hour for one of the big roller coasters. If you are looking for a park with some of the best roller coasters ever then this is it! We loved Takabisha so much, it was scary and exhilarating all at the same time! Eejanaika is going to mess with your mind, all its twists and turns. But there are other great rides too, a special mention needs to be made for Tondemina (La pizza) ride that was fantastic. This park is filled with thrills. We had the Fuji pizza which was great. As a tip, the all day pass lets you re-enter, we went back to our hotel then returned at night, well worth it. I’ve read reviews that say the safety checks take a while and they do but honestly I was glad for it. Was it worth the money? Absolutely! I’d love to go again on a clear day when I can see Mt. Fuji.

Amazing rides - better than any other amusement park i've been to. They lack the intricate themes other amusement parks have (e.g., Disneyland) - more bare bones adrenaline rush. And they are very good at this - rides are so fast and frenzied that it's actually important to listen to the instructions and maintain the posture they tell you to have. They require emtying all pockets before boarding rides, and also remove glasses (they didn't even allow using goggles). They have free lockers at each ride. There are some vegan options in the food court (vegan ramen and curry). Amusement park food, not bad but not good either. there is also a Starbucks with some vegan snacks and vegan lattes. When we were there the lines were very short, so we would probably could have done without the priority tickets we bought. But I read and heard that in most times the lines are very long, and priority passes are recommended. We bought everything in the fuji Q website - if the site crashes, try turning off the google translation - it worked for us.

We got there right as they opened and there were little to no lines which was great. We were able to get through a few rides in just over an hour which is awesome! As the day progressed, the lines did start to get longer, but we definitely got our money's worth with the day pass. I think the longest we waited for a ride was about an hour. Also, the views of Fujisan were breathtaking! Especially from the top of the highest roller-coasters. Definitely will visit again next time we are in Japan!

A must if you visit Fuji area. Not that crowded during autumn season, no long lines. Really fun amusement park. Great viewing spot of Fuji. Really cool roller coasters and also a really good and huge Haunted House of 3 floors or so. Available different types of food: recommend the curry pan. Naruto themed area was really fun and entrance has a direct train station: easy to visit.

We went on a Autumn Thursday so there weren't that much lines! We were able ride all the rides that were open that day. They closed some down pretty early like the pizzala and the paniclock. I think Dodonpa closed down. However, the must-try rides for speed and thrill that are usually open are Fujiyama, Takabisha (the vertical drop was amazing), Eejanaika(fast and fun), and Zokkon. The Naruto village was a great place for me since Im a Naruto fan!

The world’s longest and insane rollercoaster with a 3.5 g force. People who love the thrill. Can’t recommend enough. We stayed at the hotel in the park and get early pass into the park. I upgraded my room to the theme rooms and it was like living in the world of Lisa and Gaspard. Closest view of Mt. Fuji when your at the highest point on the coaster.

We visited on a weekday and it was not too crowded actually. Most visitors are local Japanese. The park has English translations at every ride and facility. It was not difficult to navigate in the park as foreigners. We were thrilled at some of the rides and totally appreciated the effort being put in designing such rides. The longest wait we did was around 80 minutes but it could be longer on weekends. Purchase fast passes if needed. You will need to register for facial recognition right before entering as every ride will require that facial scanning for you to enter. Clean park. Excellent food options. Restaurants and food stalls charged reasonably and food actually tasted good.

We chose this location on a day trip through the Fuji area because of the peaceful beauty of all the surrounding trees. It was very calm with a feeling of being a special place in nature. It's a less busy spot and less about seeing Fuji at this location. There are shrines and statues to view too but our favorite part was the nature. If you love a beautiful secluded nature spot then this is a great place for you to visit! If your main motivation is to see Fuji or just shrines then this may not be your favorite location.

If only I would check that this is beginning of Yoshida trail… I would start my journey from Shrine, instead 2 days before we started from Subaru 5th station. shrine is lovely place surrounded by old cedar trees. Very refreshing in hot summer day.

We discovered the shrine totally by accident, without realizing its significance as a holy site and a spiritual trailhead for pilgrims looking to ascend Mount Fuji. We saw a wide woodland path from the road and decided to park up and go down it. After maybe 200 yd, we came to a peaceful stream, a bridge, and a huge wooden gate leading to the shrine complex. The gate is the largest of its kind in all of Japan. The shrine is still very active, there were people here praying and paying their respects- both employees and visitors. All the structures throughout the shrine had informative plaques in Japanese and English explaining the significance and how to properly pray here. Sometimes you visit somewhere and you can just feel the significance in the air, and this is one of those places. We were able to wander around the entire place at no charge.

We visited this shrine on our first day's excursion in Tokyo. This was our very first stop. I love the quite, peaceful location in the forest and enjoyed walking amongst the tall, green trees. The grounds are well kept and there were plenty of parking spots available. The were a few other shrines in the vicinity and we explored them all. This shrine is believed to be used for worshippers of Mt Fuji and deemed as a sacred place.

Our tour guide recommend this spot. Less crowded then other tourists spots. Not worth going out of your way for. Nice for aome pictures, but other shrines look similar. Make a wish before you leave.

The tranquility is felt in this temple area. The trees are incredibly large. Some of the smaller temples have been restored beautifully. Love to spend more time sitting in the grounds. Worth a visit to get a feel for the shinto belief system

Beautiful shrine in a shady area. We came on a Saturday and there were 50 or so shops setup in a small market. Free!

Went there in the morning on weekdays (Sep). Not many people in the morning. Nice view though Fuji is not yet covered with snow. I enjoyed this farm and think its really suitable for family

Makaino Farm is one of those rare places that instantly lifts your mood the moment you arrive.

Highly recommended for families, couples, or anyone who just wants to recharge in a positive, uplifting environment. Makaino Farm is pure wholesome joy.

Fun time with the kids. Lots of petting and feeding to be done. Wonderful view with Mt Fuji at the back. Only downside is that this place is quite far and not convenient.

Too many people, small resort. Beginner courses are good for beginners and course C & D are decent. It’s just too busy to get a few good runs in. Better off going up north if you want a proper experience. The line to the chairlift was about 200 people long

The snow is quite harder than the usual. Rentals are good and could have more selection on items. The Ski and sleds would be nice if they added more. It felt a little crowdy.

I had my very first ski lesson here, and it was such a lovely experience! I took a beginner lesson with an instructor who was really helpful and patient. I also spent some time trying on my own to get used to the skis – though I still have a lot to learn (I kept falling and accidentally going sideways instead of straight down the slope 😅). The facility has all the necessary equipment, which made things super convenient. And the view of Mt. Fuji while skiing? Absolutely breathtaking – definitely the highlight of the day! 🌄 Overall, a fantastic introduction to skiing. I’ll definitely be back for more practice!

Fujiyama Snow Resort Yeti, is renowned for its early season openings and diverse range of activities suitable for all skill levels. The place is Ideal for beginners and intermediates, offers a gentle incline and is equipped with a magic carpet and high-speed quad lift.

I came in mid-November. The temperature was around 16°C at noon, so naturally it was a bit warm for skiing. We skied on a slope with artificial snow; it wasn’t too bad for beginner and intermediate skiers. The slope was quite narrow, and you can only reach the top by a ski lift, which takes a bit long. There is a place where you can rent ski pants, jackets, boots, skis, and snowboards, but they don’t rent accessories like helmets, goggles, or gloves. There’s a small market and a restaurant. The draft beer was really good. For those planning to rent equipment, I can say the gear is old and not very well maintained. Still, the facility itself was well-kept, and you can see both Mount Fuji and the ocean at the same time.

On 2nd of January 2023. Finally we reached our destination. Could see a crowd , we could see many many cars but ample parking space . Many foreigners we could see. The name Yeti itself sounds Nepalese borrowed word lol. It was Not a bad weather and it had not so steep slopes . Perfect for the beginners and kids . After 8 hours of snow boarding practice , we had our dinner in a Food court. And drove back home the same evening . Thanks for reading … Please feel free for any kinds of infos or curiosities in this fun vid. This place I highly recommend for a family and the beginners. Not so cold, clean toilets, ample locker systems, restaurants are in a waking distance . The beginner stages are less steep and walkable ( no need to use the surface lifts just can walk up and skate down several times even could go and come the toilet in a short time without wasting the precious and enjoyable time ) I experienced that instead of taking breaks for drinking , it’s better to carry some drinks with you and keep at any corner somewhere at the ski spot ( best thing about Japan , no one take away the private belongings. ) Also recommend to carry your own ski suits , goggles , hat and gloves at least . It really minimizes the expenses in a huge term. As these kinds of gears are distinctively expensive there which is obvious. It’s like the price of a cup of coffee at the summit of any mountain lol. Mask is very essential specially while going to the enclosed buildings like restaurants or toilet or locker room or entry registration office. BTW better carry the cash otherwise for the creator card payment you need to go back to the main entrance again and again. Parking fee is 1200¥ and I didn’t understand was 500¥ at the toll kinda entrance just before entering the ski spot territory . Trespassing punishment May be lol. Anyway we enjoyed the fullest . Have fun …

No snow for playing kid but must pay ¥1200 for kid and ¥1700 for adult not recomended for visit oN November

You take your shoes off right when you enter and put them in lockers. The first desk is for booking the general facilities. If you go around that desk and to the right, you can book massage appointments. One hour was 6,000 yen (about $35 USD). We had two girls and one guy and we all had our massages in one room together. Fully clothed and with the lights on! It was different than other massages I’ve had but REALLY good! My only complaint was not being able to call/book in advance and the facilities were a bit dirty. I didn’t see the spa areas.

Crowded and popular amongst locals. The onsen is rustic and the outdoor onsen is nice to chill and relax. There are enough baths to relax and the entire place is meant for relaxing and healing.

Amazing experience. We loved it so much that we went twice. They don’t allow tattoos inside, and it’s separate areas for men and women. The price was very moderate, ¥ 1600 per person on weekdays and ¥ 2000 on weekends. There’s also a nice view of Mt Fuji from the balcony.

Front desk is nice but the company they outsource for services is not working together as a team. Front desk rectified my poor experience with a refund and many apologies. ~ I was told tattoos need to be covered and was sold coverings at the front desk for $20. I did not want to go to the onsen. I tried to book a lymphatic drainage massage as an alternative service to be respectful of the onsen rules.... and the reception TOLD me I MUST to go into onsen for steam before lymphatic. The masseuse did not like me! She was fully clothed, staring at me delivering multiple dirty looks, physically pushing our tour guide and speaking aggressively to her in Japanese then in English telling me to GET OUT is unacceptable. I am a naked woman being humiliated in front of multiple other women because... I was told I MUST enter the onsen. Talk about setting me up to fail!!!!!!!!!!!

We had the best time at Fujiyama Onsen! The whole experience was relaxing, clean, and beautifully maintained. The indoor and outdoor baths were amazing, and the atmosphere was so peaceful that we didn’t want to leave. The facilities were great, the water felt incredible, and everything was perfectly organized. Truly one of the best onsen experiences we’ve had — highly recommended for anyone visiting the area!

Hot spring was good. You don’t get a yukata(not sure if this is how you say it), so every time when you get to a public area you need to put your own clothes on. All the power outlets are blocked off. You need to rent a power bank. There are quite a few things to do, but be ready to pay for everything. Admission fee is also pretty high compared to other places that I have been that didn’t charge for every single thing. Massage was below average.

Really nice Onsen, highly recommended Men and women are separate. There are view pools, all of them are nice, there is a sauna as well. There is everything needed in the fitting room: hairbrushes, hair bands, towels, shampoo, conditioner, skincare products. Highly recommended to visit

The Shinkansen crosses the river Urui from Kyoto to Tokyo. You get a beautiful view of Mt Fuji from here.

Quiet and easy access. Train will arrive before departure time 10 mins.

Small station, big views 🚄🗻 Shin-Fuji Station is clean, easy to navigate, and super convenient for catching the Shinkansen. But the real magic? On a clear day, you’ll get a postcard-perfect view of Mt. Fuji right outside the station. Great photo spot, smooth connections, and a peaceful vibe compared to bigger stations. 🗺️ Gateway to adventure. 📸 Mt. Fuji = 10/10 if the skies are kind. 🚄 Fast trains, slow moments.

If you want to experience the speed of Nozomi and Hikari, spend sometime on the platform before boarding your Kodama. Also get a good view of Fujisan if you are lucky !!!

I had the best experience here at the information center. We were planning our Mt Fuji trip from Shin Fuji station last minute. Thanks for the information staffs patiently and nicely help us to get the most out of our limited time. Thanks to them, we got a two day bus pass which is awesome to visit Mt Fuji. We also get to see the Fujinomia and heritage center in a fast speed. It made our day!

Very nice place, like a rural Japan town. Few taxis though but quite a diffrent Japan travel experience

Clean and cosy station.

Always mesmerizing to see mount Fuji and Shinkansen, these two are the champion from Japan

Very good service. As a foreigner, they helped me even though I didn't speak their language. My mother is 65 years old and even she was able to fly!

We had a great time flying with Asagiri! The flight is spectacular with impressive views of mount Fuji. The whole process is really clear and efficient. Despite us not speaking Japanese we managed to communicate. The price is great value - almost half the cost of flying in Europe, so don’t miss out! They respond very quickly by email. Thank you again for a memorable experience

Booked the tandem paragliding course but because of the weather, we had to switch to the short flight course. But we still had a lot of fun!! The staff were accommodating and patient with us. Thank you so much for the experience. Also many thanks to our little learning group - so supportive! Highly recommended! ありがとうございました！

We did the tandem ride as tourists trying paragliding for the first time. We went in late September and the weather was perfect for us. The tandem ride was a lot of fun, from getting to the launch site (a car ride to a little lift with chairs) then swooping around the trees, then doing spirals, and finally landing. It was well worth it for us. I would highly recommend!

It was our first flight for my boyfriend and I and everything was perfect! They came pick us up at the hotel and brought us directly to the site. The view on Mount Fuji was insane and the team really professional and funny at the same time ! If you want to have an amazing Japanese experience, don’t hesitate and book your paragliding there !! Thanks again, memories will stay for a long time :)

My girlfriend and I both did a tandem flight with them and we were amazed. Our two instructors were super kind and we immediately felt very safe. The views during the flight were mesmerizing, although we weren’t able to see the Fuji while being in the air. It was the first paragliding experience for both of us and we had a great time. Thank you very much for having us!

We had an amazing paragliding experiences thanks to Asagiri Plateau paragliding school. Super friendly and helpful staff was a big plus. While the school offers pickup, it was bit difficult to find transportation back to Fujikawaguchiko as there were limited bus services due to the corona situation. Would recommend going by car for those who are able to drive in Japan.

It's a lifetime Opportunity to Visit the Place.... temperature is 6 deg celsius,...Very few People at the location.. Never forgettable Place....

This is the starting point for the Fujinomiya Trail, which is the shortest and steepest route to the summit of Mount Fuji. It begins at a higher elevation compared to other trails, around 2,400 metres, making it the fastest way up in terms of distance and time, though the ascent is more direct and physically demanding. Ideal if you're aiming for a quicker climb, but be prepared for a steeper hike with less gradual acclimatisation. I did my hike on 25 June, started at 6:15am and returned by 1:50pm.

Great free parking at the top of a beautiful road. There are no shops, water etc up here for most of the year. There is a toilet block, 10 minutes walk along the trail, but it’s water-less. The nearest water/bathroom is in a car park about 15-20 minutes drive down the mountain. The trek up to Mt Hoei is difficult (because it’s like walking on a sand dune) beyond the volcano, and takes 90 minutes.

Buses are available for Mishima and fuji station at very reasonable cost. Toilate are very dirty and smelly . Recommend you get food from station since here very expensive.

Amazing drive and not busy! Snow at the top for sure right now.

There is a station near the entrance of Fujinomiya trail. There are toilets near station.

(Translated by Google) We used the Fujinomiya Trail Fifth Station Parking Lot as a meeting point for our climb of Mount Fuji. Please note that due to vehicle restrictions, you cannot drive your own car there and will need to take a shuttle bus or taxi. There are shops and snack bars near the parking lot as well as a climbing equipment rental service, making it very convenient for us to get all the supplies and preparations we need before our climb. When I told the staff member that I was about to start climbing, they greeted me with a bright smile and said, "Good luck!" which gave me a boost of energy even before we set off. There are also restrooms, which is reassuring, and it's great to be able to take a break here before starting your climb. I think this is an essential base for anyone using the Fujinomiya Trail. (Original) 富士宮口五合目駐車場を富士登山の待ち合わせ場所として利用しました。 車両規制があるためマイカーでの乗り入れはできず、シャトルバスやタクシーで向かう必要があるのでご注意ください。 駐車場周辺には売店や軽食のお店だけでなく、登山道具のレンタルも整っていて、登山前の準備や調達が一度にできるのがとても便利でした。 スタッフの方に「これから登るんです」と伝えると、明るい笑顔で「頑張ってね！」と声をかけていただき、出発前から元気をもらえました。 お手洗いも完備されていて安心ですし、ここで一息ついてから登山に臨めるのはありがたいです。 富士宮ルートを利用される方には欠かせない拠点だと思います。

Snow Resort Yeti is a fantastic place for some winter fun, especially if you’re visiting Mt. Fuji! The snow activities are perfect for beginners and families. The view of the iconic Mt. Fuji in the background makes the experience even more breathtaking. The resort is well-managed, equipment rentals are convenient, and the staff is super friendly. Definitely a must-visit for snow lovers in Japan!

Highly highly recommended this snow resort to boarders/ skiers enthusiasts from beginners to advanced level. Spacious skiing trail and the male instructor by the nickname of Tom Cruise was super experienced, patient, motivating and friendly. The food are pretty good too. Thumbs up to the facilities and the effort to upkeep of the entire place

A very fun and well maintained snow resort. I’ve been here twice, once for snowboarding and once to do some sledding with my friend’s kids. Both trips were an absolute blast and a true delight. Extremely beautiful views, well maintained facilities, and reasonable prices. The food was of course excellent. I remember this place very fondly.

Coming to Tokyo in January and wishing to experience snow but on a limited time. I recommend coming here. Not sure though how you can come here via bus since we went via a guided tour van. Place is amazing, not too crowded, skiing is a recommended activity but you can make the most of the place by just playig around. It’s just a 20-30 minutes drive all the way to the top when you came from the Panoramic Ropeway.

Following our serene visit to Oshino Hakkai, we eagerly headed to our next destination: Fujiten. The excitement was palpable as we indulged in a variety of winter activities. We had an absolute blast engaging in energetic snowball fights, thrilling skiing adventures, exhilarating snowboarding sessions, and fun-filled lift rides. The diverse range of activities made for an unforgettable and truly amazing experience.

Really had a great time here. I skied and snowboarded and it was a blast. I rented the snowboard and it cost ¥5000 for the board and the boots. It was also the same price for the skies and boots. The lift pass cost ¥5500 with a ¥500 deposit, so total was ¥6000. Scenery was amazing while going up the lift. Highly recommend going here!

Had a fabulous day, there are a lot of people who do not know how to ski or snowboard on the big runs that probably shouldn’t be on it, had a few close misses! However very fun day, I would recommend bringing your own snacks as the food options are very limited

5 stars roadstation. Great food, nice view and not crowded !

Like many road stations (michinoeki) in japan, this one is really a nice place to drop by if you're passing through. Even if you don't drive you can come here by a bus that runs between Mt. Fuji station (in yamanashi) and Shin-Fuji station (in Shizuoka). I came here by bus from Fujinomiya station and explored the area. It has a huge parking lot, toilets, showers, vending machines, souvenir shops, ice-cream, Fuji viewing observation deck and a lot more. There is a trail from here that goes to a spot called 'Fureai no Mori entrance'. It is a 50 min circular walking trail into the forested area in this neighbourhood (goes all the way up to the border of Yamanashi prefecture). After exploring the area, I walked 3-4 km south to the bus stop called 'Asagiri kogen' which has a nice Family Mart so you can rest there while waiting for your bus back to civilization. You can take great shots of Fuji and farmlands all along the way.

Stopped by on a road trip around Fuji-san to take some pictures. Didn't realise it but it was culture day in Japan so there was a small festival set up outside. Lots of traditional foods and snacks and street foods. Felt like it was the middle of no where but it was very lively. Inside was lots of traditional snacks and seasonal foods as well. Had some fresh raw milk from cows that graze on the mountain side. Was very rich and creamy with a strong beef flavour. Not sure what it would be like on a regular day, but it was also exceptionally clear so we got some good photos of Fuji-san that day.

It was a great experience to see Mt. Fuji up close again after a long time. It's different seeing him from a far and go and see him this close. This is also the station where you can start to hike using the Yoshida trail going up the mountain. Hiking season starts on July though. We went here last year around May.

Nice shop with lots of local specialties, fairly priced. Great views on a nice day.

Excellent place to visit with your family, relatives, friends, and loved-ones. You can see the beauty of Mt. Fuji most especially during Spring Season. This place has food restaurants, café, bending machines for drinks, milk station, and the like. I will come back here someday. Travel. Relaxation. Refreshment. Eating. Drinkinga little. Cycling. Camping. Enjoy life and try to experience the beauty of this place.

A nice pit stop with everything you need and the shops area next to it are also a must go. The milk factory, yam factory, green tea factory.... many things to see here.

If you coming on good weather. Ypu will got beautiful view.

Beautiful park. Well worth a visit !!

nice garden around a museum

This is what relaxation looks like. Have a seat and enjoy the sounds. Throw all your beliefs away and just let the whole area wash over you. It's beautiful.

Bright red bridge with crystal clear water flowing . Peaceful and great for photos .

Truly one of the most peaceful places on Earth. Big enough to enjoy many aspects of nature and Shinto culture in different ways. Personally, I enjoy the aesthetic of the shrine and then head northeast to the pond to enjoy the peace and cleanliness of the well-maintained landscaping. The ducks and koi are friendly and well fed, but make sure you only feed them natural bird food (seeds, corn, dry brown rice, etc) since processed foods (including bread) can hurt them.

100% worth a visit. Beautiful and peaceful.

I don’t think it’s worth a visit unless you have kids. I did see that it was more for kids but thought maybe I would be able to see a cow or something and have some ice cream. There is a restaurant there but it was very busy. There was a goat petting area but it’s like 700¥ for 15 minute plus then you pay for food. I didn’t want to pet a goat that badly lol. Lots of kids activities and playgrounds so it’s definitely worth it there. Idk where they keep the cows here cause we couldn’t see them, so we ended up leaving to IDEBOK cow farm for ice cream and a more adult vibe.

Creamy and not too sweet soft serve, they do sell local snacks/fruits/vegetables at reasonable prices. Highly recommend for who needs a quick stop during your trip. It was a cloudy day or we could have seen the Mt. Fuji.

We came as two adults without kids so skipped all the animal petting part of the place. However do go and try the milk coffee (pictured) as it's really nice. It's got a nice natural sweetness to it but a sophisticated after taste. I ended up drinking two! There are also fresh fruit and vegetables available from the local region. Looked really good alas as I'm a foreigner I have no where to cook them. Toilets are nice and clean too.

Perfect place for people who love villages. It had really beautiful mountains and cows and goats. Got my coffee from there and lots of snack as souvenir

This is a great place to shop souvenirs.

We had an absolutely wonderful time at Fuji milk land. The accomodation was perfect for our needs. From our balcony we had a perfect unobstructed view of mount Fuji. Wow what a sight! For dinner we enjoyed the BBQ set which the staff so kindly set up outside our cabin. The setting made for a truly magical evening. The food was great (set included beef, pork, vegetables and noodles as well as sauces ect.) We washed it down with some craft beers brewed by the farm which were quite a nice change from the usual Sapporo, Asahi selection. Since we arrived quite late in the afternoon on our first day we spent the afternoon visiting the animals and enjoying some ice cream! Awesome experience for the whole family. Would highly recommend if you are looking for a fun stay at a reasonable price!

We had an ice cream break here! 💯 It was delicious. The cream cheese flavor is the one that I really recommend! Also the fresh milk and choco milk is bussin 🫶🏻

It's a interesting and relaxing place, can bring family and have fun. Only not give 5 stars, because the lack of information in other languages.

Lots of gemstones and fossils as well.

Really interesting place. Saw the sign when driving past and it turned out to be a really good little stop. Plenty of fossils, rocks and crystals to be seen

Very cute little museum, there are some very interesting exhibits. Everything is laid out in a very fun manner which would be especially good for kids, but it's just as enjoyable for adults. Exhibits don't have English, but Google translate worked well. They have a little interactive demonstration in the entry hall (with English cards) which was very interesting. There's a small outbuilding where you can dig for little chips of gems and other semi precious stones which is just a generally fun experience, most of the people there when we went were actually adults having a good time.

Great fun, very special types of rocks and fossils displayed in an approachable way.

Really excellent displays, much larger than we anticipated.

Very beautiful museum. There are various types of fossils and stones and the way to expose them sometimes is too funny, like the "pork stone" or the dessert shop

Nice shrine! Big and with lots of things to see. Apparently famous for blessings by priests.

The place holds some matsuri every now and then.

Calm and peace.small but beautiful.

(Translated by Google) I went to have my new car purified! I've been here before during wind chime season, but it was my first time getting a purification ceremony! The shrine was very beautiful! I also received a lot of talismans and other items, which made me feel really protected and safe on the roads! There were lots of different types of goshuin stamps, including seasonal ones! Since I had the purification ceremony, I'm thinking of returning to pray every six months when I have my car inspected or have it checked! (Original) 新車のお祓いで行ってきました！ 以前風鈴の時期に来たことがありましたがお祓いは初めてでした！ 神殿はとても綺麗でした！ また、御札類やらな一式沢山頂け、交通安全、守られている感たっぷりです！ 御朱印の種類もたくさんあり、季節のものもありました！ せっかくお祓いしてもらったので点検や車検時に半年ごとお参りしようかなと考えてます！

(Translated by Google) I visited Futchi Rokusho Sengen Shrine (Mikaichi Sengen Shrine) for the first time because the Tanabata Wind Chime Festival is being held from July 7th (Mon) to September 1st (Mon), 2025. I followed the directions of my car navigation system and found it easily, and the parking lot was easy to find, and there was a free parking lot right in front of the shrine. Then, I went to worship, and immediately after passing through the large torii gate, there was a "chozuya" (water basin) on the left, where there were flowers and wind chimes. At this point, I somehow felt that this was not a shrine you can find in your neighborhood. There are stone statues of Doraemon and Pikachu scattered around the grounds, and many beautiful wind chimes are hanging around the main hall, playing a cool sound. It is worth seeing, and it was a very nice and unique shrine. Other than that, it is a normal shrine where you can normally get amulets, ofudas, goshuin, etc. at the gift shop, so please visit it. The shrine maiden at the gift shop used very polite language and it was pleasant. 2025.07 (Original) 富知六所浅間神社(三日市浅間神社)では、令和7年7月7日(月)～9月1日(月)まで「七夕風鈴祭り」が開催とのことで、初めて訪れてみました。 カーナビ通りに行きましたがすぐにわかり、駐車場も分かりやすかったです、神社の目の前が無料駐車場でした。 そして参拝、大鳥居をくぐりすぐに左に”手水や”がありそこには花と風鈴がありました、なんとなくそこら辺にある神社ではないなとこの時点で感じました、そして境内にはドラえもんやピカチュウの石像が点在しています、そして本殿の周りにはたくさんのキレイな風鈴がぶら下がっており涼しげな音色を奏でていました、一見の価値はあります、とても素敵な個性的な神社でしたよ。 その他は授与所にて、お守り、お札、御朱印等も普通に頂けるふつうの神社です、ぜひ訪ねてみてください。 授与所の巫女さんがとても丁寧な言葉使いで気持ちが良かったです。 2025.07

(Translated by Google) Perhaps because I visited on a rainy day, there were no other people there and I was able to worship at my own pace. The shrine building seems to have been renovated and is well worth seeing, it has a very beautiful and solemn feel. The goshuin are also seasonal? There were written goshuin and, of course, handwritten goshuin. Since I was there, I got a handwritten goshuin. (Original) 雨の日の参拝だった為？か他に人が居なくてゆっくり参拝出来ました。 社殿も新しくなっているみたいで見ごたえ有り凄く綺麗で厳かな感じです。 御朱印も季節限定？書置きや、もちろん直書きでの御朱印もありました。せっかくなので直書きでの御朱印を頂きました。

(Translated by Google) There are many Sengen Shrines at the foot of Mt. Fuji, and I have visited them at various locations. This was my first time at this shrine. The shrine grounds are quiet on weekdays, with few people and a very calming atmosphere. It's the perfect place for a leisurely visit, so I recommend you visit at least once. (Original) 富士の裾野には浅間神社がたくさんありますが、いろんな場所でお参りさせてもらってます。今回はこちらの神社には初めて来ました。 平日は境内も静かで、人も少なくてとても落ち着いた雰囲気です。のんびり参拝するにはぴったりなので、ぜひ皆さんも一度訪れてみてくださいね。

The place felt magical, absolutely stunning! Just being there was so relaxing and calming. It’s a small area, so there’s not a lot to do right at the spot, but it's worth a visit if you're nearby. We stopped by on the way to our paragliding activity and loved the peaceful vibe. There's also a nearby farm that's great for a family outing. Definitely recommend checking it out if you're in the area! There wasn't any entry fee, just the car parking fee, which was 500 yen

I recently visited Shiraito Falls in Japan, and it was an absolutely magical experience. The falls were stunningly beautiful, surrounded by lush greenery, and the area was incredibly peaceful. The maintenance of the site was top-notch, and the whole atmosphere was just calming and refreshing. I highly recommend it!

We visited Shiraito Falls on a cloudy and rainy day, but despite the weather, it turned out to be such a memorable experience for all seven of us in the family. The soft drizzle actually made the surroundings feel more magical as the mist from the falls blended beautifully with the fog, giving the whole place a dreamlike atmosphere. The sound of the cascading water was so soothing, and the lush greenery around us looked even more vibrant under the rain. What made the visit even more special was that, just for a brief moment, the clouds parted and we caught a glimpse of Mount Fuji in the distance. It felt like a small gift from nature after waiting patiently in the rain. The walking paths were easy to follow, though a little slippery, and we took our time enjoying every view along the way. Even with wet shoes and umbrellas in hand, we couldn’t help but smile. There was something peaceful about being surrounded by nature, hearing the water roar, and feeling the cool mist on our faces. Shiraito Falls truly lived up to its name as one of Japan’s most beautiful waterfalls, rain and all.

Shiraito Waterfall is a peaceful and refreshing stop in Karuizawa. The waterfall is not tall, but it stretches widely across the rock face and flows in thin, silky streams that really do resemble white threads. The surrounding forest makes the whole area feel calm and secluded, and the short walk from the car park is very manageable. A great place to enjoy nature, take a slow stroll, and unwind from the busy town areas. Beautiful in every season, especially during cooler months when the mist adds to the atmosphere.

Even though it was a cloudy and rainy day, the experience was powerful and unforgettable. A full arc of roaring, stunning waterfalls — truly a sight to behold. Entrance is free, and parking costs between 200–500 yen depending on how close you park to the entrance. The walk around the waterfalls takes less than an hour. Highly recommended!

Very nice place with amazing views. From here you can also go up to the Shiraito Natural Park with lovely views and if you are lucky and have clear skies, you can take amazing pictures with mount Fuji in the background. Recommend going early in the morning if you also want a good view of Fuji.

Great location to just relax and enjoy nature. Two falls for one drive. Crisp clear water and clean location. Not alot of visitors with makes it nice to just lounge around for a bit. Swimming is prohibited as a heads up. Wish I knew before I went so just putting it out there. Parking was also a breeze. 500 yen directly at the spot or 200 yen down the road. Either way its well worth it.

Everything about this place is was so beautiful. There were tons of different birds to see, and lots of different ways to interact with them and get close to them. A few of the parrots like to say こんにちは! as you walk by. You can feed them and sometimes pay to touch them or let them sit on your shoulders. I especially liked the greenhouse and all of the beautiful blooming flowers hanging from the ceiling and stacked up the walls. Also the employees were all really nice and helpful. 10/5. I can't wait to come back with my friends sometime. :)

Not an expert on birds. But felt many displayed stress like walking in circles, bar biting, rocking. Maybe some birds were rescued and unable to survive in the wild but 100% this place would not be permitted in the UK. My photos show how owls and birds of prey kept in the UK. I'm a guest in Japan and not preaching just saying not for me.

We've visited this botanical garden luckily while returning from Fuji area. When i entered to the botanical garden, i was shocked with the most beautiful flower sight i have ever seen. You become exciting with many kind of flowers with nearly every type of color! You must visit this place if you go to Fuji area. Also, there are some kinds of owl and birds inside the garden.

Wonderfull botanical park with tons of plants and birds. It is not huge but have a lot of variety of life. Ducks, Parrots , different species of Owls and lot more. Some parrots even say Konichiva. The outside area offers a good view of Mount Fuji.

Amazing place to check out and interact with birds. They have shows with up close viewing of some of the birds. Really fun and enjoyable. Lost track of time just enjoying ourselves and all the different birds they had on display!

Not necessarily being a huge fan of botanical garden or zoo, my expectation wasn't that high, but it turned out that I ended up liking this place very much. I had never seen so many different types of owls at once. The buildings are dated, but they work pretty well with a diverse set of birds / flowers to create its own unique environment.

Very beautiful garden/zoo. Lovely to stroll around the indoor garden with some of the biggest species of begonias ever seen. Large gift shop too.

Amazing walking path from Tanuki lake, very easy and beautiful . Worth it. We didn’t meet any tourists at all, guess we were very lucky! We even caught the filming of the music video by a j-rock group, but didn’t really understand who it was.

Very nice place to go in summers, it would be great if you go earlier. You can get parking place near by

No dogs allowed, but still worth a stop since the walk to the waterfall is like 3 minutes from the parking. Plenty of parking and there is a toilet.

It is a good place for family travel with kids, my son likes to throw the stones into the water, we spend almost an hour here. There are around 10 parking spaces just outside the water fall, everything free of charge here.

Our air bnb host took us to this hidden waterfall. This is not a widely known place so excessive crowd can be avoided and this beautiful nature can be enjoyed at your own pace. The water quality here is excellent and local usually consume this water. If you have a chance taste this water.

No time period to visit. And if you wanna take beautiful pics, better to go early as possible. Very beautiful. Not a big fall but beautiful.

Lovely cold mineral water . Not popular so kind of a private spot . There were some people collecting water since it’s a mineral rich water . I enjoyed taking a shower under the waterfall . Water was freezing cold even during the end of April . But yeah i loved it .

You cannot bring pets and parking is near lakeside. Has an amazing view of Mt. Fuji through the lateen area. If you collect goshuin (red) stamp there are 2 available.

The main building is destroyed. Only a shrine and few stone stele are standing.

(Translated by Google) We walked quite a bit. 40 minutes one way! There have been bears lately, so it was quite a difficult road to walk on. But there is a sense of power and accomplishment. (Original) かなり歩きました。片道40分！ 最近は熊も出るし、かなり歩きにくい道でした。 ですが、パワーと達成感はあります。

(Translated by Google) The mountain hut on the mountain trail has collapsed, the shrine's torii gate has been broken, and the shrine is surrounded by netting. It has been watching over the Fujidake faith climbers since ancient times. It is the second station on the Yoshida route, but it is quite a distance from Umagaeshi, so it is difficult if you do not have enough water, food, and equipment. (Original) 登山道山小屋が崩れてお宮の鳥居が折れて痛々しくお宮も網で囲われてます。古代から富士嶽信仰登山を見守ってくれてます。吉田ルート二合目ですが馬返からも相当な距離がありますので水、食べ物、装備は確りとしないと大変です

(Translated by Google) The Geospatial Information Authority of Japan map shows the Fujikawaguchiko Town enclave "Komuro Sengen Shrine" in Fujiyoshida City. It is the second station of the Yoshidaguchi trail to Mt. Fuji. It was my first visit in about seven years. Unfortunately, it seems to have fallen into disrepair. It is a well-known fact that the summit of Mt. Fuji is the grounds of Sengen Shrine and does not belong to either Yamanashi or Shizuoka Prefecture. Why is this place in Fujikawaguchiko Town all by itself? I look forward to hearing from those who know😊. Look it up yourself! I ended up asking at Obunjiya in Umagaeshi without doing my own research😑. Apparently Omuro Sengen Shrine (Komuro on the Geospatial Information Authority of Japan map) is enshrined in Kawaguchiko Town, and it is its inner shrine, so it is an enclave. What about the summit of Mt. Fuji? According to a regular customer who knows the area well, the area around the crater is Shizuoka Prefecture, but if you step outside the prefecture side you're in Yamanashi Prefecture. This is apparently the case for tax purposes and for the World Heritage registration reasons 🤯. I heard that the hiking trails around Umagaeshi have been rerouted many times, leaving many traces of old paths. The Geospatial Information Authority of Japan's "Komuro Sengen Shrine" seems to be a mistake, as it should be "Omuro Sengen Shrine" 🤔❓️. Is that even possible 🧐? (Original) 国土地理院の図面には、富士吉田市の中に富士河口湖町飛地「小室浅間神社」と有ります。冨士登山道吉田口の二合目になります。およそ7年ぶりの参拝となりました。残念ながら荒廃が進んでいる様に思いました。冨士山頂が浅間神社の境内で山梨県でも静岡県、どちらにも属さないのは有名なお話しです。この地がぽつんと富士河口湖町なのはなぜ🤔？　ご存知の方の投稿をお待ちしたいと思います😊。 自分でしらべろ！　てか😥。 やはり自分で調べる事なく、馬返の大文司屋で尋ねてしまいました😑。御室浅間神社（国土地理院の図面では小室）が河口湖町に鎮座しておりその奥宮なので飛地になっているとの事。 冨士山頂は？　よくご存知の常連さん曰く、お鉢廻りは静岡県、山梨県県側を一歩でも踏み出したら山梨県。税務処理上と世界遺産の登録上、そうなっているんだそうです🤯。馬返し周辺は何度も登山道が付け直されれ旧道跡が幾筋も残されれているお話し等などお聞きしました。 国土地理院「小室浅間神社」と有るのは「御室浅間神社」との間違い🤔❓️の様です。そんな事、有るんだ🧐。

(Translated by Google) A small shrine located at the 2nd station of Mt. Fuji, which you can reach by walking along the Fuji-ko route starting from Kitaguchi Hongu Fuji Sengen Shrine in Fujiyoshida. The Asama Shrine near Lake Kawaguchi is said to have its origins here✨ Now, it's just a decaying shrine and the principal image dedicated to Princess Konohana Sakuya standing behind a net, but it's actually an Okumiya shrine with quite a history as it was the first shrine built inside Mt. Fuji. With the construction of the Fuji Subaru Line, which made it easy to drive up to the 5th station, there were fewer people walking to worship from the 1st station, and the shrine has fallen into disrepair, but until the Edo period, women were not allowed to go beyond this point. It seems that it has become The path of Fuji-ko is the path of ascetic training. It's an old road, so it's well-maintained, cheap to walk on, and you won't get lost, but it's still a mountain climb. If you want to visit the shrine, be sure to properly prepare for trekking before climbing 🙆 (Original) 富士吉田の北口本宮冨士浅間神社から始まる富士講のルートをてくてく歩いてたどり着く、富士山2合目にある小さな小さなお社 河口湖近くにある「あさま」神社はこちらが起源だそう✨ 今は朽ちたお社と木花咲耶姫を奉った御本尊がぐるっと囲んだ網の向こうに佇んでいるだけですが実は富士山の中に最初に作られた神社でかなり歴史のある奥宮らしいです 富士スバルラインが出来て簡単に5合目まで車で上がれるようになったため1合目から歩いて参拝する人が少なくなり、かなり朽ちて来てますが、江戸時代までここから先は女人禁制になっていたそうです 富士講の道は修験の道 古道なので、整備されて歩き安く道迷いもないですが、あくまでも山登りです 参拝するならきちんとトレッキングの準備をしてから登りましょう🙆

(Translated by Google) It is a very quiet place. When you go around Lake Kawaguchi, it is recommended to get off the car and walk around. In winter, you might even be able to build a snowman. (Original) 很幽靜的地方，當您繞河口湖時建議可以下車走走，冬季搞不好還能堆雪人喔

Must go while you are in Japan . - make sure you are fit as it’s difficult hike ! - don’t underestimate the weather ( pack enough warm cloth , can be windy as well ) - carry enough water - you can buy water on the way which may cost you 10 times more then base ! - walking back in harder ( good hiking shoes needed) - worth to be at the top at the sunrise time ( has to be lucky with the weather )

This weather station is a BEAST! I forgot to take any pictures up close that weren’t selfies. The highest point on Mt. Fuji, the last little climb up to the station is a bear. If you’re coming from the south, it’s a slick climb up a pretty significant gravel path to get up to the station. This was the first point in my climb that I used my poles, and the first time I though I might actually fall. Attacking from the other direction is easier, but then you still have to trek down the slippery slope if you want to make a full loop. Worth waking around when the sun is out for the extra views of the crater. Definitely nice during COVID times when you can go without crowds.

Don’t miss this spot after reaching the 10th station. It’s just another 30-minute hike from there. Arrive early to avoid long photo queues!

The topmost point in Japan! Feels awesome to be here. Just look around and you’ll see everything else is below you (other than the weather station built there, of course). Enjoy the moment in time when you are among the handful people standing at the highest peak in Japan. It’s crowded by the way. If you want to take a photo at the pillar which reads “highest point in Japan 3776m” then you need to stand in a long line. I suggest to avoid it cause the line in long and you can still enjoy the moment and take other photos standing at the peak.

From Station 10, you just need 20mins to reach the peak of Mt.Fuji.🥰

The highest point in Japan and spectacular views of the huge caldera of Mt. Fuji. Surprisingly, not everyone who reaches the top comes here. It is a hard climb of 20 minutes or so after the long trail up to the top of Fuji cone. It may not be easy to convince your legs after the long ascent but your trek is incomplete without this point. Also, the best views of the caldera!

The most spectacular sunrise I've seen in my life!

We were on our way to Fujinomiya when we came across this lovely shrine. Very quiet yet serene and no crowds! Would love to come back !

Great view of Mt fuji, just a few tourists not too busy. The fortune-telling is very accurate

(Translated by Google) This is a shrine where you can get a goshuin stamp. You can also get a written document. Goshuin stamps are available at the shrine office on the grounds from 10am to 3pm on weekends and holidays. Be careful as Google Maps says the opening hours are 9am ⚠️ This is incorrect. This shrine was founded in the 1200s and is a World Heritage Site. The ginkgo trees in the grounds are magnificent. The shrine has a strong Shinto-Buddhist syncretism feel, and the grounds include Kohoji Temple (an abandoned temple) and a goma altar for ascetic practices. There is a parking lot for visitors, which is large and paved, making it very easy to use. (Original) 御朱印が頂ける神社。書置ものが頂ける。 御朱印は土日祝の10時〜15時まで境内内の社務所にて。グーグルマップの営業時間で9時となってますので要注意⚠️間違いです。 西暦1200年代創建の由緒書ある神社であり世界遺産構成遺産。境内にあるイチョウの樹は見事です。 神仏習合の色が強く境内には興法寺(廃寺)や修験のための護摩壇などがある。 参拝者専用駐車場があり、広くて舗装してあるのでとても使いやすい。

(Translated by Google) Murayama Sengen Shrine conveys the history of Mount Fuji worship and Shugendo (Shugendo). Formerly known as "Mt. Fuji Kohoji Temple," it is said that mountain ascetics would purify themselves here before heading to Mount Fuji for training. You will be overwhelmed by the powerful divine aura of nature, including the 1,000-year-old sacred tree, a large cedar, and the aerial roots of a large ginkgo tree. A place where you can deeply experience worship of Mount Fuji in the quiet grounds.

Due to the Shinbutsu Bunri (law separating Shinto and Buddhism) order issued in the early Meiji era, Shugendo practitioners were forced to return to secular life, Kohoji Temple was abolished, and Sengen Shrine and Dainichi Hall were separated. Even today, remnants of ancient faith can be seen, such as the water purification area where Shugendo practitioners and those climbing Mount Fuji underwent ablutions to purify themselves.

Fuji - Object of Faith and Source of Artistic Inspiration". It may be larger than other shrines in the area. When I got there, there were many people gathered, including local neighborhood association members, local junior high school students, shrine officials, and mountain ascetics. It seemed like they were going to hold a Shinto ritual after this, but I was pressed for time, so I prayed and saw the magnificent sacred trees, the large cedar and the large ginkgo, and then moved on to the next place. There is a large and impressive parking lot nearby and a little further away where tourist buses can stop 🅿️ There is also a toilet nearby, with a tourist information center attached 🚻 (Original) 20250710 自転車ライド「フジイチ」の途中で立ち寄りました🚵 富士山信仰の神社のひとつで、「富士山-信仰の対象と芸術の源泉」の世界遺産構成資産のひとつでもあります。周辺の神社の中でも規模は大きめかも。 行くと地元町内会の人、地元中学生、神社関係者、山伏などたくさんの人が集まっていまして、ちょうどこのあと神事をするみたいでしたが、時間が押してましたのでお参りと、立派なご神木・大スギ、大イチョウを拝見して、次の場所に移動しました。 駐車場は近くと少し離れたところに観光バスも停まれる広い立派なところがあります🅿️ トイレもその近くに観光案内所併設であります🚻

(Translated by Google) When I visited the Yasukuni Shrine Yushukan, I remembered the Type 97 medium tank at Wakashishi Shrine, and decided to visit Wakashishi Shrine for the first time in 25 years. What I remember from my childhood is the solemn atmosphere. I wondered how he would feel as he got older, but he had the same dignified air as he did back then. We would like to express our gratitude to all the heroes and the Type 97 medium tank for conveying the horrors of war to future generations. (Original) 靖国神社遊就館を拝見した折、若獅子神社の九七式中戦車を思い出して25年振りに若獅子神社を参拝させて頂きました。 若かりし頃の記憶に残っているのは厳かな雰囲気。齢を重ねてどのように感じるかなと思っていましたが、当時と変わらず、凛とした空気が漂っていました。 英霊の皆様と、戦争の悲惨さを後世に伝えてくれている九七式中戦車に感謝申し上げます。

(Translated by Google) This shrine stands on the former site of the Japanese Army Junior Tank School. It is said to enshrine the spirits of students and instructors who served in the Greater East Asia War and died for the cause. A Type 97 tank salvaged from the fierce battlefield of Saipan conveys the intensity of the fighting.

(Translated by Google) It's been exactly one year since I last came to this place. The weather was nice that day, and the white memorial monument stood out beautifully against the blue sky. Maybe it's because of my age, but every year when the hot season comes around I feel like visiting places connected to history. How would I have spent my time if I were there? It will probably take a little more time to find the answer. (Original) 前回この場所へ来てから、丁度一年が経ちました。 この日は天気が良くて、白い慰霊碑はとても綺麗に、青い空に映えていました。 歳の具合か、毎年暑い季節になると歴史に関わった場所に来たくなるんですよね。 もし自分だったらどう過ごしたのか? 答えを出すには、あとちょっと時間が掛りそうです。

(Translated by Google) This shrine is located on the site of the former Imperial Japanese Army Junior Tank School. It features a memorial to fallen tank boys and a Type 97 medium tank from the 9th Tank Regiment, which was annihilated on Saipan, on display as a "returned tank." We must never forget the tragedy of the Imperial Japanese Army tank soldiers who fought in Type 97 medium tanks, which were weaker than the German and Allied tanks of the same period. When we consider that the German army deployed Panthers and Tigers in combat in the summer of 1944, around the same time as the Battle of Saipan, we are reminded of just how inferior the technological capabilities of Japan's ground combat weapons were. (Original) 旧日本陸軍少年戦車兵学校跡地に所在する神社です。戦没した少年戦車兵の慰霊碑とサイパンで玉砕した戦車第9連隊の九七式中戦車が「帰還戦車」として展示されています。 同時期のドイツ軍や連合軍の戦車と比較して非力な九七式中戦車で戦った日本陸軍戦車兵の悲劇を忘れてはいけないと思います。 サイパン戦と同時期の1944年の夏にドイツ軍がパンターやティーガーを実戦に投入したことを考えると如何に日本の地上戦兵器の技術力が劣ったものだったかを痛感させられます。

(Translated by Google) An old tank at Wakashishi Shrine. The bullet holes on the left side of the vehicle and in the armor plate from the tank's cannon and machine gun are horrific, and the armor plates at the front and rear of the vehicle are cracked like porcelain, likely due to the flames of the explosion. The "young lions" and "boy soldiers" would likely be people between the ages of 15 and 18. We offered incense and a drink to the "war heroes" who became the "foundation of Japan."

(Translated by Google) There is a Type 97 medium tank that returned from Saipan. Bullet holes and other damage are still there, so it must have been a fierce battle. You can learn a lot by reading a book about the return of this tank. (Original) サイパン島から帰還した九七式中戦車が置いてあります。弾痕などもそのままですので大変な戦いであったことでしょう。 この戦車を帰還させた事の本を読むと色々とわかると思います。

(Translated by Google) Type 97 Chi-Ha tank, thank you for doing your best for Japan. I am overwhelmed with emotion to see you getting moving now. How do you see post-war Japan? Japan has become a pathetic country. I am sorry. I cannot face the heroic spirits who fought for Japan, but please watch over us! We will create a strong Japan! The Greater East Asia War was liberation from Western colonialism! I am not wrong!

Advanced tickets are recommended. We did not stay in a hut... we departed on the 6:40am bus from Kawaguchiko Station and returned on the 6:40pm bus. We managed to do it all in 1 day, and yes, we made the summit. The folks that stopped at the huts ended up waking up to bad weather and no view of sunrise. Sometimes, the sun needs a few hours in the sky to burn off the mist a bit and clear the view. The shrine is simple but moving. I cried when I reached it.

After climbing for hours through the pitch-black night, guided only by the faint circle of our headlamps and the slow rhythm of our steps, we finally reached the summit of Mt. Fuji just before dawn. The air was razor-thin and freezing cold—every breath turned into a small puff of white mist—but the energy around us was alive. Hikers from every corner of the world were gathering at the crater rim, all bundled up, all waiting for the same magical moment: the first light of sunrise, known here in Japan as goraikō. At around 4:15 am, the horizon began its transformation. What was once a dark canvas of indigo slowly bled into soft streaks of orange, pink, and shimmering gold. Then, as the sun inched above the endless sea of clouds, a collective wave of awe rippled through the crowd. Some clapped, some cheered, others stood in hushed silence, but we all shared the same wide-eyed wonder. For a brief moment, standing at 3,776 meters, on the very roof of Japan, I felt both impossibly small and profoundly connected—to the mountain, to nature, and to every single person around me. Just a short walk from where we stood was the Kusushi Shrine. It looked modest compared to the grandeur of the sunrise, yet its presence was powerful. Dedicated to Konohanasakuya-hime, the goddess of Mt. Fuji, the shrine has greeted generations of pilgrims who once climbed this sacred peak entirely on foot, starting from the mountain’s base. For them, this shrine was the end of a spiritual journey; for me, reaching it after hours of physical and mental endurance felt like completing a pilgrimage of my own. I paused at the small torii gate, bowed my head, and whispered a silent prayer of thanks—for the strength to climb, for the safety of our group, and for the chance to witness something so extraordinary. Around me, others were doing the same. Some purchased little protective charms, others lined up to get a commemorative summit stamp burned into their hiking sticks, each ritual carrying its own meaning. The shrine added a sense of reverence to the climb, reminding me that Mt. Fuji is not only about the challenge—it is also about humility and respect for a place that has been sacred for centuries. As the sunlight grew stronger, spreading across the sky and washing the crater in warm light, the rugged volcanic ridges cast dramatic shadows that seemed to stretch forever. I felt a rush of relief, gratitude, and pride all at once. The climb had tested every bit of stamina and patience, but the reward was so much more than the view. It was the rare feeling of standing at the meeting point of earth, sky, and spirit. With the sun finally breaking through the icy wind and warming our faces, I understood why people call this a once-in-a-lifetime experience. It wasn’t just about standing on Japan’s highest peak—it was about feeling the mountain’s spirit, about being part of a tradition that stretches back centuries. For me, Kusushi Shrine and the rising sun came together in perfect harmony, giving the summit a sense of completion. This wasn’t simply a climb to the top; it was a memory I knew I would carry with me for the rest of my life.

Thought it's not that much hard since I climbed lots of mountain peaks in US. But this one has very inclined to step up. Not medium level for mid 50 ages.

Worth the hike! They do day and night trails so you can check out at all times on their website. I recommend day so you can have the amazing views once you've made it. It is pretty grueling to make it to the summit but it all pays off once you're on top. The way up isn't that bad, but the walk down is the worst part so keep that in mind. It's at a 45 degree angle so it's rough on the feet. It took me about 6 1/2 hours to get up and about 4 1/2 going down. My experience level is at a beginners so if you're more well versed in this, you can finish way quicker. There are 4 different trails to take and you can go based on your experience levels. I personally found the Yoshida trail to be the easiest of the four. It wasn't as packed with folks and it was easy to navigate. There are steep areas so be aware of that. For the optimal day hike, start at the 5th Station. Each station has rest stops for food and drinks. Keep in mind the prices go higher since it takes that much more to bring those items up. To use the bathroom it's ¥200. You can purchase a walking stick at the 5th Station for help up on the trails. You can also get a wood burning done on your walking stick to signify each station you've accomplished. The hike down be sure to use the rest stops because you won't be able to go until about half way down (very limited). Be sure to bring all the essentials (backpack, rain gear, light jackets, gloves, hat, beanie, wick t-shirts and pants, change of clothes, sunscreen, sun glasses, lip balm, anti-chaffing cream, boots) and I also recommend not to use cotton material. From my experience, cotton gets soaked fast from sweat or rain and doesn't dry as fast and with the altitude changes and cooler weather you can potentially suffer from hypothermia. Altitude sickness is also something that may occur but be sure to take breaks as needed or you can buy oxygen cans from the 5th Station for about ¥1500. All in all, it's a great experience! Just be sure to be well prepared and enjoy the trails!

One of the blissful moments after a full night climbing.. Really nice feeling that you have achieved something.. This shrine located in top of the Mt. Fuji.. After reaching its a very long queue for entry to the shrine. The view was so beautiful on the top of fuji. You can see the sunrise from the summit.. Every time it give surprises.. Being at top before tye sunrise is a really a good feeling... Its really hard to reach.. But its worth it... If you are in Japan or living in Japan, climbing mount fuji is one of the unique experience... On the top of the mountain you will see a restaurant... You can get the noodles there.. Udon and instant ramen.. In that cold climate it will be awesome,. Mount Fuji climbing period is only between August and September ( this year (2023) it was closed on 11th September ).. Please watch the schedule and climate..

An otherworldly place ❤️‍🩹⛩️ Taken at 1:35 a.m. on August 23rd

The ultimate step after climbing Fujisan. Small temple but it embrace the astonishing view from the summit. It stamps your wooden walking stick and don't froget your goshuin (and buy the Goshuinchô it's truly magnificient)

Nice and calm place. We feel the magnificent power of Mt. Fuji from here.

Was ok

Silent place with less croud..

Nice

(Translated by Google) In the Asama faith, the deity is Mount Fuji itself, and although the area behind the worship hall is forbidden and cannot be entered, there is no main hall at the end, and in good weather Mount Fuji itself exists as the deity, making it a shrine close to nature worship. From the moment you pass through the torii gate and enter the approach to the shrine, you are protected by large cedar trees and lined with lanterns. The slightly cold, dim, and tranquil atmosphere unique to shrines adds to the solemn atmosphere. The shrine is solemn and beautifully maintained, and you can feel the depth of the faith. There are many Asama shrines around Mount Fuji, centered around Fujisan Hongu Sengen Taisha, and each one exudes a fascinating atmosphere. (Original) 浅間信仰で御神体が富士山そのもので、拝殿の奥は禁裏になっていて入れないですが、最終的に本殿は無く天候が良ければ富士山が御神体として存在する自然崇拝に近い神社です。 鳥居を抜け参道に入った瞬間から大きな杉の樹に守護され燈籠が続きます。神社固有の少し冷たく薄暗い静謐に包まれた厳粛な雰囲気が空気を引き締めています。 厳粛で美しく整備されていて信仰の厚さを感じられます。 富士山周囲には富士山本宮浅間大社を中心に多くの淺間神社があり、いずれも魅力的な雰囲気を醸し出しています。

Very peaceful with great view of the mountain

(Translated by Google) This shrine enshrines Mount Fuji itself as its sacred object. The main hall at the back of the temple grounds is a place for worshiping Mount Fuji from afar. Unfortunately, Mount Fuji was obscured by clouds, but we were able to pay our respects. There is an information desk in the shrine's private parking lot, and although it was a little after 4pm, they kindly wrote out a goshuin for us. Thank you very much.

There isn't much water, but you can see it up close and it's easy to get to, so I recommend it! (Original) 道路沿いに面しており、ちょうど滝付近は道が広いので駐車して見られます。 水量は多くありませんが、間近で見られるし、行くのも簡単なのでオススメです！

(Translated by Google) As we make our way along the side roads of the dam, a red bridge and a steep waterfall suddenly appear. Idetachi Falls is quiet and seems as if it is on the verge of realization, as I came to see it in winter. I imagine it looks different in summer, when there is more water. Photographs taken from a position closer to the basin from the red bridge are even more beautiful, but you can only get close in the winter. (Original) ダムの脇道を縫う様に進んでいくと突然赤い橋と落差のある滝が現れます。　冬に見に来たので静かで且つ何かを悟りかけているかの様な井出立ちの滝。　水量が多い夏には今とは違う姿が見られるのだと思います。　赤い橋の上からより滝壺に近い位置からの撮影の方が美しさが増しますが、近寄れるのは冬のこの季節だけ。

(Translated by Google) There is enough space for one car to park just before the guardrail in front of Shirataki Fudoson. There is almost no traffic, probably because there are few visitors, but it is better to park in case a car comes by. The drop is about 12 meters. It is good that you can easily go right to the bottom of the waterfall. The amount of water was reasonable when I visited, but the cleft in the middle of the rock was impressive. It is also good that you can enjoy the view at your own pace without bumping into other people. When the water volume is high, the water flow is quite impressive, so it is better to visit when the water volume is high, such as during rainy seasons. (Original) 白滝不動尊の前にあるガードレール手前に何とか1台程度停車できるスペースがある。訪れる人も少ない為か交通量はほぼないが、万が一車が来る可能性を考えて駐車した方が良いだろう。 落差12㍍程度。滝の直下まで簡単に行けるのは良い。訪れた時の水量はそれなりだったが、岩の真ん中あたりにある裂け目が印象的だった。人と鉢合わせすることもなくのんびり鑑賞できるのも良い。 水量が多い時はそれなりに迫力のある水の流れになるようなので、雨が多い時期などの水量が多い時を狙って訪れた方が良いだろう。

(Translated by Google) This is a place I highly recommend to anyone who wants to fish for rainbow trout. It is a pond with clean water typical of Fujinomiya, using a natural river, and there is a rainbow trout fishing spot run by the fishermen's cooperative. This is where Shizuoka Prefecture's Fisheries Technology Research Institute trout farm is located, and you can enter by paying an admission fee of 300 yen for adults and 100 yen for children (group discounts available). Open from 9:00 to 16:00, reception closes at 15:20. Each rod costs 1,700 yen and includes bait. You can catch up to 1 kg (about 5 normal-sized rainbow trout) with each rod. For items over 1kg, 120 yen per 100g. The rainbow trout you catch will be gutted and treated with salt for free. Also, on Sundays, you can grill them over charcoal for 100 yen each. What is the entrance fee to the trout farm at first? ? ? However, there are plenty of exhibits on the trout farm, so it is recommended for families with children and fish lovers. It was a great learning experience, and I also had the chance to see and touch the albino rainbow trout that happened to be born at this trout farm. (Original) ニジマス釣りをしたい人には、ぜひおすすめしたい場所。 天然の河川を使った、富士宮らしいきれいな水の池で、漁協の方が運営するニジマス釣り場があります。 ここは、静岡県の水産技術研究所養鱒場があり、その入場料大人300円、子ども100円（団体割引あり）を払って入場。 ９時〜16時で、受付は15時20分終了。 竿は１本1700円で練り餌つき。 １本１kg（普通サイズのニジマス５匹くらい）まで釣れます。 １kgを超える分は100gごとに120円。 釣ったニジマスは無料で内蔵を取って塩を振って処理してくれます。 また日曜日は１匹100円で炭火で焼いてくれます。 養鱒場の入場料、最初は？？？と思いましたが、養鱒場の展示も充実しているので、お子さん連れや魚好きにもおすすめです。 とっても勉強になるし、この養鱒場で偶然生まれたニジマスのアルビノも見られたり、触れるチャンスも。

(Translated by Google) This is a park I sometimes stop by when I come here, but it's relatively empty. As expected, there were no other people walking around besides me, probably because there were bears out there. It's a quiet park, but there are no play equipment, so it doesn't seem like it's suitable for families. (Original) 此方に来る際に、時々立ち寄る公園ですが、比較的空いています。 やはり、クマが出没するだけあってか自分以外に散策している人が居ませんでした。 静かな公園ですが遊具などは無いので、ファミリー向けでは無い印象です。

(Translated by Google) You can enjoy rainbow trout fishing for an entrance fee of 300 yen and 1,800 yen for up to 1 kilogram. I caught 12 fish, weighing 2.2 kg. It's good to fish and good to see. (Original) 入場料300円と1キロまで1,800円でニジマス釣りが楽しめますよ。12匹釣って2.2キロでした。釣って良し、見ても良しです。

(Translated by Google) I went fishing at the fishing pond. The trout is big! Even children can fish with peace of mind! On the way home, they take out the intestines and sprinkle them with salt, which is also helpful! There was also a service that grilled it on the spot! Next time, I want to go lure fishing! (Original) 釣り堀で釣りをしました。鱒が大きいです！子どもでも安心して釣りができます！ 帰りに、腸を取り出してくれて、塩をまぶしてくれるのでそれも助かります！ その場で焼いてくれるサービスもありました！ 次は、ルアーフィッシングをやりに行きたいです！

(Translated by Google) I have visited this park many times, but this time, on September 30, 2021, I stopped by on my way home from work in the Asagiri area, so I would like to write a review. I've been here several times, but there were so many cars in the parking lot that it was difficult to take pictures, so I didn't write a review, but this time it was completely empty, so I took a photo! There is a toilet that is a little unusual compared to the general public, and there is a lawn and trees, especially... It's a park like this. However, I personally think it's wonderful that there are no man-made objects blocking the scenery. By the way, it's definitely worth a visit in spring, when the cherry blossoms bloom. (Original) 此方の公園は度々訪れていますが､今回2021年9月30日仕事上､朝霧方面に行った帰りに立ち寄って来ましたのでクチコミを上げさせて頂きました。 何回か訪れていますが､駐車場に車が多く撮影が難しく､クチコミを上げませんでしたが､今回､見事に空いていましたのでphoto！ 一般とは少し風変わりなトイレがあって､芝生､樹木が植えてあって特に･･･ のような公園です｡ なのですが､風景を遮る様な人工物の無い事が､素晴らしい事だな～と､私自身思っています。 因みになのですが､春､櫻が咲く季節は一見の価値 有りです｡

Mount Hōei (Hoeizan) is a flank volcano located on the southeastern slope of Mount Fuji. It was formed during the great Hōei eruption of 1707–1708 — the most recent eruption of Mount Fuji — and reaches an elevation of about 2,693 meters above sea level. Its name comes from the Hōei era during which the eruption occurred. The Hoeizan trail offers a striking view of Fuji’s cratered flank and wide, sweeping vistas of the Pacific Ocean. The path consists mainly of loose volcanic gravel, which can be challenging but is manageable with good shoes. Trekking poles are highly recommended, as they help maintain balance on the soft, unstable ground — especially during descent. The hike typically starts from the Fujinomiya 5th Station. The ascent to the crater rim usually takes around 1.5 hours, with another hour for the descent, though times vary depending on pace and weather. It’s often windy at the top — at times so strong that it’s impossible to keep walking — so warm, windproof clothing is essential. Even outside the official Mount Fuji climbing season, the Hoeizan trail often remains accessible, and the scenery — especially on clear days — is breathtaking. I climbed Hoeizan yesterday, taking the route up through the 6th camp and descending via the Hoei Second Crater Rim. The descent trail led through a beautiful coniferous forest, and the entire hike — including photo stops, rest breaks, and a snack just below the summit — took us about three hours. It was an unforgettable experience.

It's a different world out there. It's like being on the moon. For those you can't/or are afraid of climbing Fuji San but want to experience it, this is the place to go. Easily accessible off season by car. Plenty of parking at the Fujinomiya 5th station. You can either do the easy loop by staying at the lower rim of the crater or go to the top of the crater ( more challenging because of the gravely terrain).

The path between the car park and the volcano is easy to medium, mainly because it has a few steep-ish bits. The trek up to Mt Hoei from the volcano is difficult (because it’s like walking on a sand dune). In total, 90 minutes from the car park to the top for a normal adult who’s not in a rush. Maybe 60 minutes down. It’s not particularly cold until you get to the windy ridge in the final 2-3 minutes. In October a simple sweater is fine, with maybe a thin waterproof for the top bit to keep the wind out so that you can stay up there looking for longer. I saw a few people in shorts and tshirt, but I think that may be a bit too little for most.

I feel like walking in the sky.

Mount Hōei is a flank volcano on the southeastern side of Mt. Fuji. It emerged as the results of the 1707-08 Hōei eruption of Mount Fuji. Its height is 2,693 meters above sea level, and its name comes from the Hōei era.

(Translated by Google) A very large main hall stands quietly in the forest. We visited the shrine on the last Saturday of April and saw no one but ourselves. The large ginkgo tree in front of the main hall will be truly spectacular when it changes color in autumn. I took a bath in the forest, remembering the distant past when it was at its peak of prosperity. (Original) 森の中にとても大きな本堂がひっそりと佇んでいます。4月の最終土曜日に参拝しましたが自分達以外は見かけませんでした。 本堂の前にある大イチョウは秋に色づいたらさぞかし見事でしょう。 隆盛を極めていた遙か昔に思いを馳せながら森林浴をしてきました。

(Translated by Google) A sacred and tranquil temple where the grave of Nobunaga's head is enshrined. A place to calm the soul. (Original) 信長公の首塚が祀られている神聖且つ静寂に包まれた寺院。心静まる場所。

(Translated by Google) July 2025 The approach to the temple stretches for about 1 km from the Kuromon Gate on the south side of the temple grounds, evoking its former prosperity. Perhaps because I visited in the evening, there were no other worshippers, further enhancing the shabby impression. The Nichiren sect seems to have more conflicts and sects than other sects. In 1872 (Meiji 5), it became Nichiren under the policy of "one sect, one chief priest." However, just two years later, in 1874 (Meiji 7), it split into the Nichiren sect Unity Faction and the Nichiren sect Superiority Faction, and disbanded. Nichiren Shoshu and Hokke sects, among others, became independent, and while some temples, like Taisekiji, once flourished, they all appear to be in dire straits. That being said, it is the head temple of a sect, and the main hall and bell tower are impressive. Behind the main hall is the grave of Nobunaga's head. [Denomination] Nikko Sect, Komon School [Principal Image] Ten Worlds Mandala [History] Nikko's disciple, Hiyo, inherited Jusu Honmonji Temple after his master's death. He later came into conflict with Jusu's local lord, Ishikawa Sanetada, and his followers, and left Jusu Honmonji Temple with his children. In 1344 (Kōei 3), he received a donation of temple land from Nishiyama's local lord, Ouchi Yasukiyo, and built Nishiyama Honmonji Temple. With a vast grounds spanning 360 chobu (approx. 1,000 square meters), Nishiyama Honmonji Temple, one of the most historic temples in the former Shibakawa Town, is said to have the grave of Oda Nobunaga behind its main hall. Nishiyama Honmonji is an independent temple belonging to the Fuji sect, which inherited the lineage of Nikko Shonin, one of the Six Elders and a senior disciple of Nichiren Shonin. It was counted as one of the five major head temples of the sect, known as the Fuji Five Mountains: Kitayama Honmonji, Nishiyama Honmonji, Taisekiji, Koizumi Kuonji, and Shimojo Myorenji. (Original) 2025.7 境内南側の黒門から伸びる参道は約１kmもあり、過日の隆盛を彷彿とさせます。 訪問時間が夕方ということもあるのか他に参拝者はおらず、うらぶれた印象を余計に感じてしまいました。 日蓮系は対立、分派が他宗に比べて多い印象です。1872年（明治5年）に政策「一宗一管長」制に基づいて日蓮宗となったものの、まずか2年後の1874年（明治7年）、日蓮宗一致派と日蓮宗勝劣派に分かれ解散。 日蓮正宗や法華宗など単立化し、大石寺などのように一時は興隆した寺院もありますが、どこも厳しい状況となっているように見えます。 そうは言っても一派の本山で本堂や鐘楼は見事なものです。 本堂の裏手には信長の首塚があります。 【宗派】 法華宗興門流 【本尊】 十界曼荼羅 【由緒】 日興の弟子日代は、師が没すると重須本門寺を相承。その後、重須の地頭石川実忠や信徒らと対立し、子弟を連れて重須本門寺を離山します。1344年（康永3年）西山の地頭大内安清から寺地の寄進を受け、西山本門寺を建立しました。 全体で360町歩という広大な境内を有し、旧芝川町随一の歴史を今に伝える西山本門寺の本堂裏手には、織田信長の首塚があると伝えられています。 西山本門寺は単立の寺院で、日蓮上人の高弟六老僧である日興上人の法脈を継承した富士門流に属し、同門流の5つの有力本山である富士五山（ふじござん）北山本門寺、西山本門寺、大石寺、小泉久遠寺、下条妙蓮寺のひとつに数えられていました。

(Translated by Google) There are certainly many Nichiren Buddhists (not Nichiren Shoshu) in this area, and speaking of the countryside being so close, Mount Minobu is also a temple nearby. I wonder why this particular location is so grand, but the biggest mystery is Nobunaga's grave. There are many interesting theories, so I'm happy with any of them, but I'm also drawn to the fact that something connected to Nobunaga is located in Suruga. The rest of the article is for you to enjoy historical exploration in your own way. (Original) この辺りは日蓮宗(日蓮正宗に非)が多いのは確かで　田舎のすぐそこ論で言えば　身延山もすぐそこの寺院さん 何故今場所でこの立派さと思うが　1番の謎は信長の首塚　諸説は面白いのでなんでもいいんだけど　信長の縁のある物が駿河にあるってのにも惹かれる所があります。 後は自分なりに歴史探訪を楽しんで下さい

(Translated by Google) I visited there because I wanted to see the head mound of Lord Oda Nobunaga. I was surprised to find such a large and magnificent temple in the mountains of Fujinomiya City. The appearance of the temple, which is said to have a mound of Oda Nobunaga's head, made me feel a sense of reverence as I realized that Oda Nobunaga's head was indeed enshrined here. (Original) 織田信長公の首塚を見学したくて訪問しました。 富士宮市の山の中にこんなに大きくて立派なお寺があるのにびっくりしました。 織田信長公の首塚が有る謂れと、お寺の佇まいに本当にここに織田信長公の首が祀られているんだなと、敬虔な気持ちになりました。

(Translated by Google) I learned about it the other day while watching a TV program, and immediately went to visit it. The precincts were well-maintained with majestic giant grouse. Behind the main hall is the mound of Lord Oda Nobunaga's head, creating a solemn atmosphere. The weather was nice, so we took a walk for about an hour. (^_^)/ (Original) 先日テレビ番組を見て知り、さっそく参拝しにいきました。境内はオオイチョウが雄大に立ち綺麗に整備されていました。本堂裏には織田信長公の首塚があり厳粛な雰囲気があたりを包んでいました。天気も良く、一時間ほど散策させて頂きました。(^_^)/

(Translated by Google) The first time I went, I couldn't find the entrance, so I drove down a side street, but the entrance is through the Kuromon gate. Once inside, the wide road and stone lanterns give it a castle-like atmosphere, which is really nice. 🍵 Behind the main hall is a holly tree that is said to be the grave of Nobunaga's head. In November, the Nobunaga Autumn Leaves Festival is held, with a matchlock gun demonstration in the afternoon, which is very impressive. 🌱 In 2023, the Nobunaga Festival will be held on November 12th. (It was held in the rain in 2025 as well.) (Original) 最初行った時は入口が分からなく、車で脇道から入ったけど、入口は黒門からで、入ったあとは城構えのような、大きな道と石の灯篭が雰囲気があっていいです🍵本堂の裏側に信長の首塚があると言われるヒイラギの木があります。１１月には信長黄葉まつりがあり、午後から火縄銃の演舞があり、迫力満天です🌱２０２３年は１１月１２日に信長まつりがあります。 （２０２５年も雨の中、開催されました）

(Translated by Google) There is a toilet in the parking lot on the left as you come up the skyline from Fujinomiya City, but there is no hand-washing area.You can park for free in the parking lot, and the cherry blossoms are still in bloom. (Original) 富士宮市からスカイライン上がって来て左側の駐車場には、トイレ有りますが手洗い場が有りません、駐車場は無料で駐車出来ます、まだ桜が咲いていますよ。

(Translated by Google) There is a promenade leading to the parasitic volcano. The entrance is in the parking lot on the left as you come up from Fujinomiya. There is a fairly large parking lot and toilets. The promenade was well laid out, and it was easy to walk around, making it a very pleasant stroll through the forest. There are few ups and downs and the distance is not very long, so even people who are not confident in their physical strength can easily walk along the route. There are benches and open spaces along the way. Currently, a restriction line has been set up due to a large fallen oak tree right at the entrance, and if you climb up to Nishiusuzuka, a restriction line has been set up and traffic is closed from there, so you have to go further via Nishiusuzuka. Please note that you cannot climb up to the top and go to the Takabachi parking lot. You can access the Takabachi parking lot by entering the mountain through the forest road gate on the left side when facing the entrance. Please note that cell phone reception is difficult both on the promenade and in the parking lot. (Original) 寄生火山への遊歩道が整備されています。 富士宮から登って来て左側の駐車場に入り口があります。かなり広い駐車場でトイレもあります。 きれいに遊歩道が整理されていて、歩きやすく森林の中を気持ちとてもよく散策できました。起伏も少なく距離もそんなに長くないので体力に自信がない人でも道中、気軽に歩けると思います。途中、ベンチや広場もあります。 現在は、入口すぐの大きな楢の木の倒木があり規制線が張られているほか、西臼塚まで登るとその先から規制線が張られて通行止めになっているので西臼塚経由でさらに上には登って高鉢駐車場には行けないので注意が必要です。 入口からむかって左側奥の林道ゲートから入山すると高鉢駐車場にはアクセスできます。 遊歩道・駐車場ともに携帯の電波が通じにくいので、こちらも注意。

(Translated by Google) Mt. Fuji from the outer ring of the parasitic crater is Sumi, it was so beautiful. The beech forest along the way is also full of natural cold air, making you hate descending. (Original) 寄生火口外輪からの富士山は空気が 澄、めちゃ綺麗でした。途中のぶな林も天然冷気いっぱいで、下界え降りるのが嫌になります。

Couldn't climb Fuji so we went to Kenashi which gave us a nice view of Fuji.

Good place

(Translated by Google) I climbed from the trailhead where there is a campsite, but it was a steep climb. If you look back on the way, you'll get a spectacular view of Mt. Fuji and Suruga Bay, as well as the impressive Mt. Fuji from the top. I climbed it in February, and it's nearly 2000m high, so it's extremely cold in winter. (Original) キャンプ場がある方の登山口から登りましたがずっと急登です。途中振り返ると富士山と駿河湾の絶景、山頂も迫力ある富士山を眺めることができます。2月に登りましたが2000m近くあるので冬は極寒です。

(Translated by Google) Contrary to its name, this mountain is surrounded by trees. The area around the mountaintop is wide, so there is plenty of space to have a leisurely meal. It was supposed to be a spectacular view, but unfortunately it was cloudy when we visited and the view was behind the clouds (;O;) There is a steep road from the parking lot to this point, and the altitude is about 2000m, so it is not recommended for beginners. ＼(^o^)／ (Original) 名前に反して木々に囲まれている山です。 山頂一帯は広いので、ゆっくりご飯でも食べるスペースは十分にあります。 絶景が広がっている筈でしたが、運悪く自分達がある訪れたタイミングは曇天で景色は雲のむこうでした(;O;) 駐車場からここまでは険しい道もあり、標高も2000m程と高いので、初心者にはオススメ出来ない山です。 ＼(^o^)／

(Translated by Google) 251005 Climbing Difficulty level: ★★★☆☆ Be careful as you may slip on the descent. If Mount Fuji is rated as a difficulty level of 4, this one is a 3. All I needed was a long-sleeved shirt and a mountain parka. Highest temperature at the base: 28°C - Low: 18°C I think it felt like about 15°C at the summit. I climbed with a beginner and it took 4 hours, and the descent took 2.5 hours. (Original) 251005登山 難易度★★★☆☆ 下りで滑ることがあるので注意です。 富士山が難易度4としたら3です。 服装は長袖+マウンテンパーカー1枚でOKでした。 麓の最高気温28℃〜最低18℃ 山頂は体感15℃くらいだったかと思います。 初心者の方と登山して4時間、下山は2時間半でした。

(Translated by Google) I realized why it was one of Japan's 200 famous mountains after climbing it. The climb was not that difficult. The azaleas at the top of the mountain in early June let me know that it was still spring, not summer. As a Korean, I was honored to be the first to climb it. Seeing the Japanese people who followed me cheering, I could feel the Japanese people's feelings toward Mt. Fuji. I will never forget June 3rd, when I looked at Mt. Fuji standing tall above the clouds right across from Mt. Kenashi, which looked like CG the whole time without any photo editing. (Original) 왜 일본의 200명산인지 오르고 나서야 알게되었다. 오르는 길은 그리 어렵지 않았다. 6월 초 산 정상에서의 철쭉은 이곳은 여름이 아닌 아직 봄이라는 사실을 알게 해 주었다. 한국인으로서 리뷰내 최초로 오른것을 영광으로 생각한다. 뒤이어 오르는 일본인들도 환호를 지르는 것을 보니 후지산에 대한 일본인들의 마음을 느낄 수 있었다. 사진보정 하나도 없이 보는 내내 정말 CG같았던 게나시산 바로 맞은 편 구름위에 우뚝 서 있는 후지산을 바라보는 6월 3일을 잊지 못하겠다.

(Translated by Google) There is a summit sign. No bench tables. Views are available. The summit is open, so groups can take a break. There are no dangerous or confusing areas from the base of the trailhead. (Original) 山頂標識あり ベンチテーブルなし 眺望あり 山頂はひらけているのでグループでも休憩可能 麓登山口からは危険箇所、迷いやすい箇所なし

Really nice park great views and lots of cool stuff for kids

Great place for Mt. Fuji!

Unbelievable amazing view when there is perfect weather

Great view of Fuji on a built observation platform

Its away from the city so the atmosphere is relaxing

(Translated by Google) I decided to go outside for the first time in a while in this hot weather, so I came to Shiraoyama Park in Fujinomiya. Apparently it's famous for its night view, and there are night view spots, an amusement park, a field, and if you walk to the top and go up a little, there's a slide. It's so hot, I'll save going up for next time. (Original) 暑い中、久し振りに外へ出ようとここ富士宮の白尾山公園に来ました。ここは夜景でも有名らしく、夜景スポットもあり、遊園広場ありグランドあり、頂上まで歩けば少し上ればスライダーもあります。あまりに暑いので、上るのは次回にしますね🎵

(Translated by Google) The park has play equipment and a plaza, so there are plenty of things for children to enjoy. There's also a long roller slide halfway up the mountain, so even slightly older children can enjoy it. There's also a walking course up the hill, so it's a great park that can be enjoyed by people of all ages and genders. (Original) 公園には遊具や広場があり、子供が楽しめる要素がそれなりにあります。 また、山の中腹には長いローラー滑り台もありますので、ちょっと大きなお子様も楽しめると思います。 小高い山を散歩するコースもありますので、老若男女楽しめる良い公園です。

(Translated by Google) I climbed up from the Tanuki Lake parking lot. The route is through the forest, so the scenery isn't very good. I think this is a hiking course for beginners, but there is a difference in altitude of about 600m, so please be prepared accordingly. (Original) 田貫湖駐車場から登ってきました。 道中は森の中なので、あまり景色はよくありません。 初級者向けのハイキングコースだと思いますが、標高差600mぐらいありますので、それなりの準備をして登ってください。

(Translated by Google) I climbed from the north parking lot of Lake Tanuki. It's a relatively gentle slope that you can enjoy climbing. From the top, you can see not only Mt. Fuji and Lake Tanuki, but also the famous mountains of the Southern Alps. I went down towards Kyukamura, but it seemed to be a little rough. (Original) 田貫湖の北駐車場から登りました。 比較的緩やかな坂で楽しく登れます。 頂上からは富士山と田貫湖はもちろん、南アルプスの名だたる山々も見る事が出来ます。 下りは休暇村の方へ下りましたが、こちらは多少荒れているようです。

(Translated by Google) We started our climb from the forest road behind Kyukamura Fuji at Lake Tanuki. There are signs all the way to the top of the mountain. The mountain trail is well maintained and very easy to walk. There are no particularly tough or dangerous places, and even children can easily climb it. The view from the top of the mountain is simply spectacular. It looks great when Lake Tanuki and Mt. Fuji appear together in a photo. (Original) 田貫湖にある休暇村富士の後ろにある林道から登山開始。山頂まで所々標識もあり。登山道は整備されとても歩きやすい。特にキツく、危険な場所もなく子供でも簡単に登れます。 山頂はとにかく絶景。田貫湖と富士山が一緒に写真におさまるのはとても映えますね。

(Translated by Google) Although I'm a beginner, the path was easy to understand and there were a few people here and there, so I felt safe. It was a weekday on June 24, 2024. 1 and a half hours one way. It was very cool at the top of the mountain, at 20 degrees Celsius. I arrived at the Tanuki Lake parking lot at 9:00 in the morning, but the car was parked.

(Translated by Google) At an altitude of 1,336m, it is a mountain in the Tenshi massif that stretches to the west of Mt. Fuji. A hiking course has been established from Lake Tanuki to Mt. Chojagatake, then to Mt. Amenshigatake, and then near Shiraito Falls, and there is also a Tokai Nature Trail from the north shore of Lake Tanuki to just before Mt. Amagado. The standard course time is 2 hours and 15 minutes to climb from Lake Tanuki to the summit, and 2 hours and 50 minutes to climb from Mt. Chojagatake to Shiraito Falls. From the summit of Mt. Chojagatake, you can enjoy a good view of Lake Tanuki and Mt. Fuji. Among the many mountains with a view of Mt. Fuji, Mt. Chojagatake is the summit where you can see the large Mt. Fuji quite close. There are tables and benches at the top of the mountain. There is also a trailhead on the west bank of Lake Tanuki near Kyukamura Fuji, and the trail climbs on a narrower contour line than the Tokai Nature Trail route, so it's a steep climb. The mountain trail is well maintained and joins the Tokai Nature Trail halfway up the mountain. The shores of Lake Tanuki and the surrounding mountainsides are cypress plantations, so people with cypress pollen allergy may find it difficult to visit during the cypress pollen season. Beyond the plantation area, the trail turns into a deciduous broad-leaved forest, and in the spring, katakuri blooms on the forest floor of the thicket off the mountain trail, and the Japanese cypress blooms just below the summit. It takes about 40 minutes from Mt. Chojagatake to Mt. Amagado along a ridge road with not much difference in elevation. (Original) 標高1,336m、富士山の西側に連なる天子山塊の山です。田貫湖から長者ヶ岳を経て天子ヶ岳へ、そして白糸の滝近くへとハイキングコースが整備され、田貫湖北岸から天子ヶ岳手前までは東海自然歩道でもあります。標準コースタイムは田貫湖からの山頂までの登りは2時間15分、長者ヶ岳から白糸の滝までは2時間50分です。長者ヶ岳山頂からは田貫湖と富士山の眺めが良く、長者ヶ岳は数々ある富士山展望の山々の中でも、結構間近な大きな富士山が見られる山頂です。山頂にテーブルとベンチあり。 休暇村富士付近の田貫湖西岸にも登山口があり、東海自然歩道で登るルートよりは狭い等高線を登っていくので急登が続きます。登山道はよく整備されていて、中腹で東海自然歩道と合流します。田貫湖畔や周辺の山の中腹はヒノキの植林地ですので、ヒノキ花粉症の人は飛散期はつらいかも。植林地を越えると落葉広葉樹林になり、春には登山道を外れた雑木林の林床にカタクリが咲き、山頂直下にはキクザキイチゲも咲きます。長者ヶ岳から天子ヶ岳へはあまり標高差がない尾根道を40分ほどです。

(Translated by Google) Visited: October 26, 2024 "Omuro Family Residence Nagayamon" Mimuro Family Residence Nagayamon Designated Tangible Cultural Property (Building) by Hamamatsu City Designated: July 8, 1997 From the explanatory sign below A nagayamon is a gate attached to a long, narrow house with a long ridge, such as a samurai residence from the Edo period. The Omuro family's gate has a double-swinging wooden door in the center of the front, with a side door on the left. The two rooms on either side have traditionally been called the "eight-mat room" on the right and the "miso room" on the left. Currently, both rooms have dirt floors, but investigations revealed that the "eight-mat room" once had tatami mats and traces of a ceiling remain. This room is believed to have been where the gatekeeper lived. Although the gate was partially renovated in 1929, the gate's boards, pillars, girders, and beams are ancient, suggesting that the house was built in the mid- to late-Edo period, including 1755. About the Omuro Family The Omuro family traces its roots back to Fujiwara Mitsusuke, the Minister of Civil Affairs of Omuro, who served Prince Muneyoshi, son of Emperor Godaigo. The family has continued for over 640 years. Records show that the family participated in the Winter and Summer Sieges of Osaka from 1614 to 1615. During the Edo period, the family served as headmen of Sakuma Village for generations. The Nagayamon gate is beautiful, but the stone walls built on the vast grounds make this a truly magnificent house. 😀 The grounds are extensively maintained, including a gazebo with benches. (Original) 訪問日　2024/10/26 「御室家住宅長屋門」 みむろけじゅうたくながやもん 浜松市指定有形文化財(建造物) 指定日　平成9年7月8日 以下　説明看板より 長屋門とは、江戸時代の武家屋敷などで棟を長くした細長い家の一部に門をつけたものをいいます。 御室家の門は、正面中央に両開きの板戸をかまえ、左脇にくぐり戸があり、両側は昔から右が「八畳」左は「味噌部屋」と呼ばれていました。 現在、この両部屋は土間になっていますが、調査の結果「八畳」には畳が敷かれ、天井が貼られていた跡が残っていました。 この部屋には、門番が住んでいたと思われます。 昭和4年に一部改築されましたが、門の板や柱•桁•梁などは古い時代のもので、建築の時期は、宝暦5年(1755年)を含む江戸時代中期から後期と推定されています。 御室家とは 後醍醐天皇の皇子、宗良親王に仕えていた「御室民部卿※藤原光資」を始祖としており、現在まで640年余り続く家系である。 慶長19年(1614年)から元和元年(1615年)にかけての、大阪冬夏の陣に出陣したという記録も残っている。 江戸時代には、佐久間村の名主を代々勤めたという。 長屋門も良いですが、広大な敷地に積まれた石垣が素晴らしいお宅です😀 広範囲に渡り整備されベンチを備えた東屋などもありました。

(Translated by Google) At an altitude of 256m, there is a Nagayamon Gate 🏯, designated cultural property No. 1 in Sakuma Town. An information sign 🪧 was erected along the national highway. The amount of stone walls is amazing 👏 Remains of a mansion 🏰 There is an information board in front of the gate It seems that this Mr. Mimuro served the Tokugawa and went to the Osaka camp. He also received a reward😲 (Original) 標高256m、佐久間町 指定文化財１号の長屋門🏯がある 国道沿いに案内標識🪧が建ってた 石垣の量が お見事な👏屋敷跡🏰 門の前に説明板がある こちらの御室(ﾐﾑﾛ)さんは徳川に仕えて大阪の陣にも出陣したらしい 褒美も貰ったとか😲

(Translated by Google) Just looking at the exterior from the outside, it is a very impressive mansion. There is no parking lot, so it is difficult to find unless it is improved a bit more and made into a tourist spot. (Original) 外がら外観を見るだけですが とても立派なお屋敷です。 駐車場がないので　もう少し整備して観光スポットにしないとわかりにくいです。

(Translated by Google) An old building in the Ueno district of Sakuma-cho. You can't see inside the building. It seems they are currently working on repairing damaged areas. I also went there in September 2020. Road maintenance work was being carried out around the building. (Original) 佐久間町上野地区にある、昔の建物。建物の中は見れない。今は、傷んだところを修理する作業をしているようだった。 令和2年9月にも行きました。建物周辺の道の整備工事が行われていました。

(Translated by Google) About 30 minutes walk from Sakuma Station. It's not that far. It can be seen small from the town of Sakuma. (Original) 佐久間駅から徒歩で30分ほど。そんなに遠くはない。佐久間の街から小さく見ることができる。

(Translated by Google) It was beautifully maintained. (Original) 綺麗に手入れがしてありました。

(Translated by Google) The samurai residence gate was quite nice. (Original) 武家屋敷門はなかなかよかった

A very nice and well maintained recreational area overall. Lots of great views of Mt. Fuji! Plenty of free parking is also available for guests of the park and sports facilities. Unfortunately, in spite of the nice vistas and facilities, the only very disturbing problem that many people noticed and remarked negatively about was the nauseating stink coming from the men’s restrooms located on the outdoor field area. Furthermore, the dust that got kicked up on the field area also needed to be regularly watered down to avoid dust clouds from forming.

When i went here it was lunch time and i rest here for a while and eat my lunch here ..I feel so much relaxed .. i feel the fresh air , the sound of the wind and the sound of the water ... Feels so good .. Simple life ...

Amazing city park with LOTS of space and shade and things for the whole family to enjoy... but NOT much parking, and difficult to find if you haven't been before.

Very nice and peaceful place for relaxcation..kids can really enjoy this park..

(Translated by Google) This 1.8-hectare urban park is located to the east of the Fujinomiya Sports Park Civic Gymnasium in Fujinomiya City, Shizuoka Prefecture. It has a complex playground including the Santa Monica Path, which is modeled after sister city Santa Monica, a grassy area, and slides, and the weather was good, so it was bustling with families with small children. The former Sotogami Castle, which also served as an observation deck, has been demolished, and construction is currently underway on the site to install the largest complex playground equipment in the prefecture, which is scheduled to be completed in August of this year! It seems that the parking lot will also be expanded, which I think families with children will be looking forward to. The parking lot is small, and it seems that it is used by baseball officials on baseball game days. When I returned to the park in two weeks, some of the new giant playground equipment was on display at the construction site, but I couldn't enter the construction site! I'm looking forward to seeing the playground equipment completed! (Original) 静岡県富士宮市の『ふじのみやスポーツ公園市民体育館』の東側に在る面積1.8ヘクタールの都市公園。姉妹都市提携を結ぶサンタモニカをイメージした『サンタモニカの小径』や芝生広場や滑り台などを含む複合遊具が設置されて居て天気も良く幼児連れの家族等で賑やかでした。 以前在った展望台を兼ねて居た外神城は解体され、跡地は現在工事中で県下最大級の大型複合遊具の設置工事中で今年8月に完成予定との事！です、駐車場も増設する様ですよ、子供連れの家族の方々は楽しみだと思います。 駐車場は狭く、野球の試合が有る日は野球の関係者が利用する様です。 2週間後に再園すると工事現場には新たに設置される巨大な遊具などの一部がお披露目されているが工事現場には入れません！遊具などが完成するのが楽しみですね！

(Translated by Google) I heard that one of the largest playground equipment in Shizuoka Prefecture had been completed at Toshin Higashi Park in Fujinomiya, so I went to check it out. It was truly gigantic, like a giant chestnut🌰. It's so large that even adults would want to try playing on it. It's very tall, wide, and deep. It might be dangerous for children under 3 or 4 years old, but it's perfect for elementary school students. (Original) 富士宮の外神東公園に、静岡県で最大級の遊具が 完成しました!という情報を知りましたので行ってみました。 ビッ栗🌰するような本当に巨大な遊具でした。大人でも 遊んでみたいと思えるような大きなスケールの遊具です。 とても高くて幅も奥行きも広い遊具です。 3～4歳以下のお子様には危ないかもしれませんが 小学生には最高の遊具でしょう。

(Translated by Google) I went for the first time because I heard they had newly installed some big play equipment! There's a slide that even adults would find scary, play equipment that even small children can play on, and you can throw a ball around in the plaza in the back, or lay out a picnic blanket on the large lawn and let babies roll around. With play equipment this big, it doesn't bother me much even if there are a lot of people! I went on a weekend, so the parking lot was full, but I was lucky to find a car that had left at the right time so I was able to park! I gave it four stars because the parking lot is small and only has a limited number of spaces... There are still some areas that are fenced off, so I wonder if they'll do something about it? I'm hoping for a parking lot!! (Original) 大きな遊具ができたとのことで、初めて行ってきました！ 大人でも怖そうな滑り台や、小さな子供も遊べる遊具、奥の広場ではボール投げもできるし、広い芝生ではレジャーシートを敷いて赤ちゃんもコロコロできます。 これだけ大きい遊具だと、たくさん人がいてもそんなに気にならない！ 休日に行ったので、駐車場は満車でしたがタイミング良く出た車がいたので停められました！ 駐車場が狭いのと停められる台数が少ないので、星4つにさせていただきました… まだ塀に囲われたところがあったので、何かできるのかな？ 駐車場を期待してます！！

(Translated by Google) It's in a very quiet place, and it feels a little lonely when there's no one around.There was a parking lot, but there were no goshuin stamps.It may be a big help, but the lumber in the shrine building is a living tree. Perhaps it's because of the condition, but it's a very humid place, and combined with the pests that eat away at the trees, it seems that the deterioration is severe, and if we don't do something about it, it looks like it's going to fall apart even more in a few years. (Original) とても静かな場所にあり、誰もいないと少し寂しい感じのする場所です、一応駐車場がありました、御朱印の類はありませんでした、大きなお世話かもしれませんが、社殿の方の材木が生木のまま?のせいなのか、湿気が酷い場所ですの木を食い散らかす害虫と相まって劣化が激しいと見受けられます、何らかの処置をしなければ数年で更にボロボロになってしまいそうです。

(Translated by Google) August 2025 The Shinto religion Amaterasukyo was founded in 1869 by Tokuda Hirotoyo, who was closely associated with historical figures such as Shimazu Hisamitsu and Saigo Takamori and was involved in the Sakuradamon Incident. At the time of its founding, the temple boasted tens of thousands of followers and flourished, with inns, bathhouses, and tofu shops lining the streets. The temple grounds are home to cherry blossom trees planted by Saigo Tsugumichi, a key figure in the Meiji Restoration government, Takashima Kaemon, Jirocho of Shimizu, and founder Tokuda Hirotoyo. Many of the cherry trees, some over 100 years old, are unique in the prefecture. (They bloom in early May.) Amaterasukyo's headquarters is home to Japan's largest and oldest mermaid mummy. While mermaids typically conjure images of women, this mermaid is a humanoid transformation—a 56-year-old man approximately 170 cm tall. Its origins date back 1,300 years. Regardless of whether this is true or not, it is a rare sight that has been featured in many books and other publications. When I visited, there were no other worshippers there, and only the silence and the rustling of the trees was audible. The main deity enshrined here is Amaterasu Omikami, and the teachings of Shinto, Confucianism, Buddhism, and Christianity are apparently mixed together. (Original) 2025.8 神道天照教は、島津久光、西郷隆盛など、歴史上の人物とも親交が深く、桜田門外の変にも関わった徳田寛豊が開祖となって明治2年（1869年）に創始したもので、開設当時は信者数も数万人、旅館・風呂屋・豆腐屋などが軒を並べるほど栄えていたそうです。 境内には、明治維新政府の重鎮であった西郷従道や政商高島嘉右衛門、清水の次郎長や開祖徳田寛豊手植えの桜があり、樹齢百年余りある多くの桜は県内唯一のものです。（五月初旬開花） 天照教本社には、日本最大にして最古である『人魚のミイラ』が現存しています。人魚と聞くと女性をイメージしますが、この人魚は、身長約一七〇㎝、五十六歳の男性という人間からの変体であり、その由来は今から千三百年前に遡ります。真偽は別として、多くの書籍等でも取り上げられている珍しいものです。 訪問時には他の参拝者はおらず静けさと木々のざわめきだけがありました。 天照大神を主祭神とし、神道・儒教・仏教・キリスト教の教えをミックスしているそうです。

(Translated by Google) There was a magnificent cherry blossom tree halfway up Mt. Fuji, and in the cool air, there were cherry blossoms that were hand-planted by Jirocho Shimizu. (Original) 富士山の中腹に 立派な桜の大木があり 凛とした空気のなかに 清水の次郎長 お手植えの桜がありました。

(Translated by Google) I was passing by and the atmosphere seemed nice. There are no other places that you can get close to, so it might be a good idea to take a break and visit the shrine. (Original) 通りがかったけれど雰囲気は良さそう。ほかは近くに寄れるような感じの場所は無いので、一息ついて参拝するのも良いかもしれない。

(Translated by Google) Sorry to bother you with 3776. We were allowed to use a bench under the eaves of the building. It helped my body because I was tired. (Original) 3776でお邪魔しました。建屋の軒下にあるベンチを使わせて頂きました。身体が疲れていたのでたすかりました。

(Translated by Google) It is a place where the air and cherry blossoms are clean and your soul is cleansed. (Original) 空気と桜が綺麗で心が洗われる所です。

(Translated by Google) The view of Mt. Fuji from the observation deck at the top of the mountain is spectacular. You can enjoy a panoramic view of Fujinomiya, Fuji, and Shibakawa. The park's lawn is also well-maintained, making it perfect for walks and picnics. There are many camellias planted on the side of the mountain path, and the best time to see them is in early spring. In addition, wild vegetables such as Zenmai and bracken are also abundant. (Original) 山頂の展望台から見る富士山の眺めは最高です。 富士宮～富士～芝川の景色をグルリと見渡せる事が出来ます。 公園の芝生も綺麗に手入れされており、散歩やピクニックに最適です。 山道の脇には、椿がたくさん植えられており、春先は見頃となります。 また、ゼンマイやワラビなどの山菜も繁ってます。

(Translated by Google) I used to go there often when I was a kid, but now the road to the parking lot is narrow and it was difficult to get there, probably because it was under construction. The view from the observation deck is also △ (Original) 子供の頃はよく遊びに行ったが、今は駐車場までの道も狭く、工事中でもあったせいか辿り着くのも大変でした。 展望台からの景色も△

(Translated by Google) It is a satoyama next to Mt. Iwamoto, and has similar characteristics, such as a park near the mountaintop. There is a school and rehabilitation hospital halfway up the mountain, and there are a few private houses near the park, but the road narrows halfway and is unpaved, so Mt. Iwamoto is better in terms of access. There are radio towers and triangulation points near the summit, and the view, including Mt. Fuji, is very good. The Myojoyama Tunnel of the Shin-Tomei Expressway runs directly under Mt. Myojo, and if you look to the west, you can see that the Shin-Tomei Expressway threads through the mountains. There is a hiking trail running from Manno, so it is possible to walk up the mountain, and as of February 2018, when I walked up there, the grass on the hiking trail was well mowed and it was very comfortable to walk on. The trees must have been cut by the kindness of local people. (Original) 岩本山のお隣にある里山で、山頂付近に公園があるなど特徴が似ている。 中腹には学校やリハビリ病院があり公園近くまで民家も少数あるが、道路は途中から狭くなり未舗装路なので交通アクセスという点では岩本山のほうが良い。 山頂付近は電波塔や三角点が設置されており、富士山を含めて眺望はとても良い。 明星山の直下には新東名高速道路の明星山トンネルが通っており、西方面を見ると新東名高速道路が山間を縫うように通っているのが分かる。 万野方面からハイキングコースが通っていて歩いて登ってくる事は可能で、2018年2月現在で歩いてみた時には、ハイキングコースの草はよく刈られていて歩くのにとても快適だった。 地元の方々のご厚意で刈って下さっているのだろう。

(Translated by Google) Sometimes I walk to the top and have lunch, it's a great place to see Mt. Fuji. (Original) 時々頂上まで歩いて行き昼食します、富士山が見えて良いところです。

(Translated by Google) 2025/3/23 It is a large and wonderful park. A new general gymnasium will also be built, which will make the park even more attractive. (Original) 2025/3/23 広くて素晴らしい公園です。総合体育館も新設されるようでますます魅力的な公園になるでしょう。

It was nice and cool

Coming from someone who has been the winemaker of this winery might sound like a subjective opinion but this is a beautiful winery at a beautiful location with well made Japanese as well as international wines. The team will give you a detailed tour of the winery and all the information you need for a proper introduction to Japanese wine.

Must to be there ! A special place and great wines.

Fun little stop for some unique wine in the region.

(Translated by Google) You can enjoy wine and food at the cafe while looking at Mt. Fuji. It looks like a nice place, but there are a lot of people with dogs. If the dog is well-behaved, it's not a problem, but there are some bad dogs that bark endlessly and their owners just ignore them. When I went there, there was a stupid dog that just barked nonstop, which was unpleasant. For some reason, the staff didn't even bother to tell him off. The comfort level depends on the customer gacha element. (Original) 富士山を眺めながらカフェでワインと料理を楽しめます。 見た目だけならいい雰囲気ですが、犬連れの方が多く、躾のなってる犬なら気になりませんが中には無駄吠えを延々と繰り返す駄犬とそれを放置する飼い主がいます。 私が行った時もひたすら吠えてる馬鹿犬がいて不快でした。何故か店の人も注意しない始末。客ガチャ要素によって快適度が左右されます。

(Translated by Google) I participated in the Mt. Fuji Winery Tour. Pick-up arrived from Shin-Fuji Station on the Shinkansen line. The car was a large van and was very comfortable. The tour also included a tour of the grape farm with explanations and a tour of the winery. The special lunch with wine after seeing these two was fantastic. You could almost say that the six types of wine were all-you-can-drink. The two-hour lunch was delicious and filling. The staff were all friendly and down-to-earth. I bought two bottles of their original wine as a souvenir. Of course, the pick-up was included so that we could taste the wine. It's still a young winery, so I'm looking forward to seeing it prosper in the future. This tour might be a good deal now. It feels like a good deal!! (Original) 富士山ワイナリーツアーに参加しました。 新幹線の新富士駅から送迎が着いています。 車は大きなバンで乗り心地が良かったです。 ブドウ農園の説明付き見学とワイナリー見学も付いています。 この2つを見てからのワインを飲みながらのスペシャルランチは素晴らしかったです。 ワイン6種類がほぼ飲み放題と言っても良いと思います。 2時間かけたランチは、美味しくお腹いっぱいになりました。 スタッフさんも皆さん素朴で優しかったです。 お土産に2本のオリジナルワインを購入しました。 勿論、送迎付きなのはワインを味わってもらう為でもあります。 まだ若いワイナリーなのでこれからの繁栄が楽しみです。 このツアーはもしかして今のうちかもしれませんよ。 お得感あります！！

(Translated by Google) I visited in October 2023. A winery that harvests local grapes 🍇 and makes delicious wine 🍷 I visited during my trip. Dogs are allowed in the store🆗, so we had fun choosing souvenirs♪ They are building a cafe next to the winery and are planning to offer meals and desserts that go well with the wine. I'm looking forward to it! I would like to visit again if I have a chance. (Original) 2023年10月伺いました。 地元のブドウ🍇で収穫､美味しいワインを作ってるワイナリーさん🍷 旅の途中で訪問しました。 ワンコも入店OK🆗で、お土産選びも楽しめました♪ ワイナリー横にカフェを建設中でワインに合う食事やデザートを提供できるように企画中だと｡楽しみですね♪ 機会があればまた､訪問したいです。

(Translated by Google) Although we visited without an appointment, the president's daughter kindly gave us a tour of the winery, explained everything to us, and allowed us to experience a tasting. We were also grateful for the interesting explanations and the opportunity to try many different wines at the cafe afterwards. (Original) アポ無しで伺ったのですが、社長の娘さんが丁寧にワイナリー見学とご説明、テイスティングを体験させてくださいました。その後のカフェでのテイスティングも興味深い解説と共にたくさん飲ませていただき感謝しております。
