2024 Fujinomiya Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in December)

Best View of Mount Fuji in Japan❤️‍🔥❤️

#internationaltravel I went to Mount Fuji ginseng transportation three times and finally understood it! If you plan to go to Mount Fuji, especially from Tokyo, the public transportation system can make your head ache. I sincerely recommend everyone to do their homework before departure, otherwise it will really waste a lot of time, especially when there are many transportation options to reach Hekou Lake. It is important to clearly demonstrate the advantages and disadvantages of each method. Advantages: Fast speed, seats throughout the journey, more affordable dust and other methods, high cost-effectiveness! Wang Qian's weakness: He needs to buy tickets in advance, especially during peak season when he often cannot buy tickets near the departure time. When departing, be punctual, otherwise you will have to wait again if you miss it. And there will be traffic jams during peak seasons. Purchase ticket: 4th floor of Shin Ma Station or online highway bus (2200 yen) [Transportation from Tokyo to Mt. Fuji Kawaguchi] 1 bus

Shiraito Falls

Shiraito Falls, located in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan, is a waterfall known for its beauty and uniqueness. Highlights: • The water flows down from Mount Fuji in thin streams, resembling silk threads, making it look like a white waterfall. • The surrounding scenery is beautiful, including forests and mountains. • There are walking paths prepared for close-up nature viewing.

A trip to Mount Fuji is a must.

⏳Best Viewing Time Mount Fuji is covered in snow in winter. The best viewing time is usually from late November to March of the following year. January and February are particularly recommended due to the clear weather and high visibility. 🧳Preparation: The temperature at Mount Fuji is extremely low in winter. Wear multiple layers of warm clothing, including a windproof jacket, thermal underwear, waterproof pants, and professional climbing boots. Gloves, hats, and thermal socks are also essential. 👍Recommended Viewing Spots ✅Fuji Five Lakes: Lake Kawaguchi is an excellent spot to view the reflection of Mount Fuji. The lake and the mountain complement each other, creating a breathtaking view. ✅Oshino Hakkai: Known as the "Jiuzhaigou of Japan", the clear spring water comes from the snow on Mount Fuji, creating a pleasant view. 🗓Itinerary: In addition to viewing the snowscape, you can also choose to visit a hot spring resort near Mount Fuji to relax. The Kawaguchiko Ski Resort is also a great place to experience winter sports. 📝Tips: 1️⃣Check the weather forecast before departure and take measures to keep warm. 2️⃣Follow local regulations and instructions to ensure travel safety. 3️⃣If necessary, you can hire a local guide or join a tour group for more professional guidance and help.

My First Fireworks Festival

**Date: August 2023** I had been looking forward to this trip to Tokyo for a long time because I had planned several special activities: the Harry Potter Studio, Mount Fuji, and the Tokyo Fireworks Festival. Let me share this unforgettable travel experience with you! --- #### Day 1: Harry Potter Studio Tour In the morning, I took a train from Tokyo to the Harry Potter Studio located in the suburbs of Tokyo. The moment I walked into the studio, it felt like I had entered a magical world! Every corner here was filled with magical elements from the Harry Potter series. **Highlights of the tour:** - **Hogwarts Great Hall**: Standing in the Great Hall, I imagined the magical students gathering for a grand feast. The chandeliers and long tables around me were mesmerizing. - **Magic Props Display**: Seeing the original magic props and costumes, such as Harry's invisibility cloak and Ron's wand, filled my heart with fan excitement. - **Interactive Experience**: I also participated in a magic class, trying to wave a wand to cast spells. Although it wasn't very effective, it was full of fun! After a delightful tour, I returned to Tokyo with a lot of souvenirs and beautiful memories of the Harry Potter world. --- #### Day 2: Mount Fuji Adventure Early the next morning, I took a bus to Mount Fuji. Under the morning sunlight, Mount Fuji looked even more magnificent. I arrived at the Fifth Station, where I could admire this symbol of Japan up close. **Highlights of the trip:** - **Photo Opportunities**: I stopped at the Fifth Station and took countless beautiful photos of Mount Fuji. The scenery was indescribable. - **Mountain Rest**: At a small shop on the mountain, I enjoyed a bowl of hot ramen, which revitalized me for my little adventure. - **Natural Scenery**: The environment around Mount Fuji was breathtaking. The trees and streams made me feel the tranquility of nature, and I felt completely relaxed. After the Mount Fuji trip, I returned to Tokyo, feeling very satisfied. --- #### Day 3: Tokyo Fireworks Festival On the last day, the long-awaited Tokyo Fireworks Festival finally arrived! This is an indispensable traditional event in Japan's summer, full of excitement and joy. **Highlights of the Fireworks Festival:** - **Crowds**: I arrived at the venue early, surrounded by the bustling crowd. Everyone was wearing traditional yukatas, celebrating this grand event. - **Food Enjoyment**: There were many food stalls selling delicious treats like takoyaki, fried skewers, and cold beer. My friends and I enjoyed eating while having fun. - **Magnificent Fireworks**: As night fell, the fireworks began to bloom splendidly in the sky. At that moment, everyone around me exclaimed in awe, watching intently, and I felt a sense of happiness.

It was an unforgettable night. --- ### Conclusion This trip to Tokyo allowed me to experience magic, the grandeur of nature, and traditional celebrations. Every moment was filled with surprise and emotion. I returned home with many memories and souvenirs, looking forward to my next trip. I hope everyone has the chance to come here and experience this beauty firsthand!

Finally found the perfect photo spots for Mount Fuji.

No matter how many times you visit Tokyo, you must capture Mount Fuji! This time, I was lucky to get a shot of Mount Fuji in May, so I hope to share it with everyone. The locations are not hard to find at all. P1: Yume no Ohashi Bridge P2: Fuji City (a must-pass through when traveling from Tokyo to Lake Kawaguchi, surrounded by Mount Fuji, hence the name Fuji City) P3: Midori no Tenboudai (a newly popular photo spot for Mount Fuji in recent years) P4-P5: Heading to Lake Kawaguchi for photos P6: New Century Lake Kawaguchi Fuji Hotel P7-8: Tenjoyama Park P9: Oishi Park No matter how many photos you take of Mount Fuji, it's never enough. I hope to visit again in winter and find even more photo spots.

Mount Fuji, Japan - Cherry Blossom Season

#flowerblossom The area surrounding Mount Fuji is one of the most popular destinations during Japan’s cherry blossom season. A visit here offers a stunning view of the iconic mountain framed by a sea of pink sakura blooms, especially at Chureito Pagoda. Early April is the best time to witness the full bloom, making it a must-visit for flower enthusiasts. Make sure to stop by the Fuji Five Lakes region, where you can enjoy boat rides and picnics under the blossoms. For the best experience, consider visiting on a weekday to avoid the weekend crowds. #flowerblossom #100WaysofTravel #CherryBlossom #MountFuji #JapanTravel

Mesmerizing Mount Fuji in Japan♥️🌹❤️

#japantrip The most beautiful cherry blossom season in Japan is from March to April. If you come to Japan for the first time, you can directly control the line on this road! You must go and take a look in early summer! Soaking in hot springs, surrounded by mountains and forests, the scenery is different all year round. If you missed the # Fuji Mountain in the heart of spring, you can return from this trip and enjoy the vast wisteria flowers

Majestic Fuji: A Glimpse of Japan's Iconic Peak

#japantrip Fuji Mountain, or Mount Fuji, stands as a timeless symbol of Japan's natural beauty and cultural heritage. Its perfectly symmetrical cone shape and serene presence against the skyline evoke a sense of awe and tranquility. Visitors flock year-round to witness its majestic silhouette, especially during cherry blossom season when it is framed by pink blooms. The mountain's allure extends beyond its physical form; it holds spiritual significance in Japanese culture and has inspired countless artists and poets. Whether viewed from afar or climbed for a closer encounter, Fuji's allure is undeniable, leaving an indelible impression on all who behold it. A visit to Japan is incomplete without experiencing the breathtaking grandeur of Fuji Mountain firsthand.

Do you love the blue sky, white clouds, and Mount Fuji in summer?

When it comes to Mount Fuji, many people think of the snow-capped peak in winter. But in fact, Mount Fuji is equally beautiful and moving in summer! In the summer, Mount Fuji is surrounded by lush green trees and a dazzling sea of flowers, presenting a completely different beautiful scenery. The Mount Fuji in summer, accompanied by blue sky and white clouds, the snow on the peak glistens under the sunlight. Whether viewed from afar or admired up close, it makes people marvel at the natural wonders. Not just the mountain scenery, the surrounding landscape of Mount Fuji in summer is also equally enchanting. Whether it's hiking or relaxing in the hot springs at the foot of the mountain, both are excellent experiences.

Mount Fuji will reward every friend who knows how to strategize!!!

Actually, the scenery on the road of travel is like a book without words, under the influence of subjective and objective factors, everyone's feelings will not be the same. Many people feel that Mount Fuji is not very worth visiting, I hope this guide can make everyone put aside objective factors as much as possible, and truly appreciate the beauty of Mount Fuji! Mount Fuji visibility: Many friends come to Mount Fuji to look into the distance and take a beautiful check-in photo. But Mount Fuji is not visible every day, there's no need to talk about rainy days, but even on sunny days, Mount Fuji will hide itself due to the influence of clouds and fog. So everyone should make good strategies, you can first check the visibility on the Fujimi Forecast for the next few days, the closer the number, the higher the visibility; the weather~ is ever-changing, so it can only be used as a reference, but having it is better than not, right! Mount Fuji in different seasons: In spring, cherry blossoms bloom at the foot of Mount Fuji, and the 'snow cap' of Mount Fuji has not melted. You can take pictures of the beautiful scenery where Mount Fuji meets cherry blossoms from Lake Kawaguchi or Oshino Village. In autumn, the rice fields around Mount Fuji are fragrant, and October and November are the red leaf season of Mount Fuji. On the north shore of Lake Kawaguchi, the road is covered with a layer of crimson by the red leaves, forming a 'red leaf tunnel'. In winter, Mount Fuji is covered with snow, and the 'snow cap' of Mount Fuji also begins to form. It is worth mentioning that in summer, although the 'milk cap' of Mount Fuji naturally melts when the weather is hot, Mount Fuji usually becomes bald in June, but Mount Fuji is not completely without its charm at this time, there are routes to climb Mount Fuji from mid-July to September! Many people come to Mount Fuji to take photos and check in. But it might be better to slow down a bit. You can get off at Yoshida and go to Asama to take a photo, walk along the residential path to Hikawa Watch Shop, and then walk towards Mount Fuji. Along the way, you can have a coffee and then sit by Lake Kawaguchi to stare at Mount Fuji in a daze. I think travel and tourism are not the same thing. I prefer traveling, more free-spirited, go wherever, and be at ease with whatever happens. Just like at the hotel, it was cloudy the day before, and the next day when I opened the curtains, Mount Fuji was right there. This kind of unexpected joy is incomprehensible to ordinary people!

In this lifetime, one must see the sea of clouds at Mount Fuji, which I visited three times in four months

After going to Japan, wouldn't you really want to see a sunrise at Mount Fuji? As everyone knows, there are many spots to view Mount Fuji, and there are also many tourists. Especially during holidays, it's so crowded that even the convenience stores announce they are drawing the curtains. What many people don't know is that there are many hidden spots, with few people and beautiful scenery for an exclusive view. — Mount Fuji after the rain is a stunning sight I've never seen before. The mist gradually lets down its guard after the glow of dawn. The hazy Mount Fuji slowly reveals itself, making us who waited for two days tearfully happy. — 👉Address: Hirano in Yamanakako at Mount Fuji, Japan Spot 1️: The shore of Hirano in Yamanakako: Can capture the volcanic reflection + swans Spot 2️: The boardwalk by the water in Yamanakako: Can capture the walkway, with lakeside rocks in the foreground Spot 3: Nagasaki Park in Kawaguchiko, by the main road: Features a large cherry blossom tree in the foreground ⚠️Spot 1 and Spot 2 are both in the plains of Yamanakako, about a hundred meters apart, but Spot 1 is slowly becoming more known, while Spot 2 is less known and yields better photos. — 👉Transportation: 1️】Take a highway bus from Shinjuku's express bus terminal in Tokyo to the plains of Yamanakako, about a 2.5-hour drive. ‼️Be sure to buy tickets in advance, as there may be none available on the spot 2️】Take a train from Tokyo to Otsuki, then transfer to the Fujikyu line to Kawaguchiko, and then take a bus from platform 6 for an hour to the plains of Yamanakako ‼️Suitable for those with uncertain departure times, but the downside is that transferring takes time and it's often crowded with no seats available ‼️Note the last bus time from Kawaguchiko to Yamanakako, as missing it means an 8000 yen taxi ride from Kawaguchiko to the plains — 👉Accommodation: 1️】hanamizuki, stayed twice, clean, with communal baths and restrooms, includes breakfast, dinner can be booked, no air conditioning, tatami mats 2️】Gojuban Japanese-style hotel: clean, with communal baths and restrooms, does not include breakfast, no air conditioning, tatami mats ‼️Both of these are very close to the sunrise spot in the plains, a five-minute walk

Mount Fuji One-Day Tour for a Small Group of Nine

Just participated in a Mount Fuji one-day tour, circled around Mount Fuji for more than half a circle, and admired this iconic Japanese mountain at 5 locations. The overall experience is good, costing more than 500 RMB, and the return on investment is quite good. The car is a branded tour bus, a high-top Toyota Sea Lion, with nine seats. The seats are a bit tight and the comfort is a bit poor. Dined at the Hakkai scenic spot, Japanese set meal, averaging more than 2,000 yen per person, equivalent to more than 100 RMB, not bad.

Hunting for Mt. Fuji Day

#exploreasia Mount Fuji is a breathtaking destination which is right at the top of many visitors’ bucket lists. To save our time for this day trip, we are taking Fuji Excursion train from Shinjuku Station (Tokyo). It connects directly to Mount Fuji which saves travelers a great deal of time as well as the hassle of making multiple changes. Since there is heavy snow a night before our trip to Kawaguchiko, we thought we never get a chance to see the Mount Fuji. But, we are so lucky as it shows up after the sun is rising. #couplestrip #fuji #awesomepic

Mount Fuji 🗻 🇯🇵

My friend and I went with a tour, which we bought off TRIP for around £70 for the day. It was a great experience and the tour bus took us to several locations, including a tea ceremony. We stopped of at lakes and had time to walk around the highest point you can reach of Mount Fuji by car. There were lots of tours to hike up the mountain, which would take multiple hours, however we did no do this this time. The weather was cloudy standing on Mount Fuji, and quite cold, however it was an enjoyable day. Located near Mount Fuji is a large shopping mall, which we stopped at before heading back to the train station at the beginning of the tour. If you’re doing to go, I’d recommend a tour to see Mount Fuji from different angles. #hikingtrails #campingglamping #mytripvlog #awesomepic #mountainview #japan #mountfuji

Enjoy a refreshing soak in the hot springs of Hakone, Japan - Lake Ashi and Lake Kawaguchi offer stunning views of Mount Fuji.

Near Tokyo, Japan, is the town of Hakone, which can be reached by taking the JR train. Hakone is a great place to soak in hot springs ♨️, with hotels and guesthouses of all sizes offering their own hot springs. We booked a hot spring hotel package with excellent service, and could soak in the hot springs both morning and night. The pools in the morning and evening were different, and we could enjoy the view of Mount Fuji and the surrounding scenery while soaking in the hot springs. It was a true luxury. Lake Ashi is peaceful and beautiful, and Lake Kawaguchi reflects Mount Fuji. When you wake up in the morning, clouds float over the top of Mount Fuji like a fairyland.

Although I have never been to Kamakura, there is a common background in most Japanese anime - Mount Fuji. Mount Fuji spans across Shizuoka and Yamanashi prefectures, with its foothills located in the great trench zone between Suruga Bay and the Kiso Mountains. It is 3,775.63 meters high, with a circumference of 125 kilometers at the base and covers an area of approximately 1,200 square kilometers. It is one of the largest active volcanoes in the world. We went from the direction of Yamanashi prefecture. Mount Fuji is revered by the Japanese people as the "sacred mountain" and is a symbol of the Japanese nation. As one of Japan's national symbols, it is a pity that when we went, the weather was bad and it was snowing, so we could only climb halfway up the mountain and couldn't experience it up close.

Japan travel ✈️ Great place to see Mount Fuji

When it comes to Mount Fuji, almost everyone thinks of Tokyo. Actually, the best observation spot is Shizuoka! And Shizuoka is far from the city, making it even cleaner and more comfortable. Personally, I really like it. At the same time, Shizuoka is the hometown of Chibi Maruko-chan. While enjoying the natural scenery, You can also reminisce about your childhood while doing so. It's really wonderful~ Now the mask issue is basically not a problem, Keep holding on and it will be Golden Week soon. This year, I will definitely drive and take my family to Shizuoka for another round of fun!

Mount Fuji

Aspire to be like Mt. Fuji, with such a broad and solid foundation that the strongest earthquake cannot move you, and so tall that the greatest enterprises of common men seem insignificant from your lofty perspective. With your mind as high as Mt Fuji you can see all things clearly. And you can see all the forces that shape events; not just the things happening near to you. Miyamoto Musashi

Japan travel recommendation for photo spots at the foot of Mount Fuji 🗻📷

Image 1-6: (Lakefront outside the Mokuhankan Art Museum at Lake Kawaguchi, navigable on the north bank of Lake Kawaguchi) On the lakeside trail on the north bank of Lake Kawaguchi, there are steps leading to the lake. Personally, I like the sense of the picture taken by the photographer from a distance with a telephoto lens, where the characters blend into the scene, creating a contrast between the magnificent Mount Fuji and the miniature figures. I really love this spot, where there are rows of cherry blossom trees along the trail. When they are in full bloom, the cherry blossoms 🌸 nearby and Mount Fuji in the distance make for a stunning cover photo. There is also a coffee shop here. If you have enough time, you can enjoy a cup of coffee here and quietly appreciate the beautiful moment of gazing at Mount Fuji. . Image 7-9: (Rikawa Clock Shop) When using a telephoto lens, the image can be compressed, making Mount Fuji appear very close and spectacular. However, I don't really recommend this location as there are a lot of cars and people, and there are currently two traffic administrators guarding the area, making it difficult to take photos. . Image 10-11: (Lawson convenience store) Not sure who was the first to discover this place, but there are definitely eyes👀 that can appreciate its beauty. It's just hard to take pictures with all the traffic. . There are also several classic places that we didn't get to visit. Fuji Asama Shrine in Shinzan, Tenkuu Karuizawa, Reagan-ya, and Makaino Farm, didn't have enough time to visit them all, will go again next time. . At the foot of Mount Fuji, there are various cherry blossom viewing spots: the fifth station, Oishi Park, Gassho Village, Shiraito Falls, hot spring hotels, etc. If you wnat to take a visit in cherry blossom season, you can take photos at these places. 📷: Fujifilm XS10 .
