#japantrip It really has the flavor of Makoto Shinkai, and the anime has been adapted into reality. I took a trip to Hakone and opened a box. The most popular scene for people is the water birds along the banks of Lake Ashina. On good days, you can see Mount Fuji from the Chengchuan Art Museum. However, I haven't seen a tree lined path leading to the birds living on the lake behind the Uzi. There are pirate ships coming and going back

Located near Lake Ashi in Hakone, this is an accommodation facility of the Prince Hotel chain. The building is not new, but the interior does not feel old and was very clean. The hotel is very spacious, and there are paths nearby for strolling as well. The dinner was a buffet, but as expected of the Prince Hotel, the lineup was very luxurious. From your room, you can enjoy the rich nature of Mount Fuji, Lake Ashi, and the trees of Hakone. Also, since it is very close to Lake Ashi, I think it is a very good hotel for sightseeing.

On the second floor, there was even a children's play area and a game center! There were also souvenirs and a photo corner that gave a feeling of autumn! The autumn leaves are just beginning, so enjoy them🍁 #HakoneTown #Hakone-en #Hakone #AutumnLeafViewing
