Yamanashi Prefecture Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Lake Kawaguchi Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
I specifically flew to Japan for the maple corridor under Mount Fuji
Hi, I am 11🍁
Finally came to Japan to see the maple leaves! The red of the maple leaf corridor at Lake Kawaguchi is really like a scene in a Japanese anime, taken on November 19, the maple leaves are still red and yellow gradient, it is estimated that there are 2 weeks of viewing period.
.
The entire maple leaf corridor is not long, the branches on both sides form a natural arch. Under the sunlight, the maple leaves and ginkgo are shining, really like a Japanese anime.
.
It is recommended to rent an electric bicycle when you come to the maple leaf corridor, and the scenery along the way is also very beautiful. Depart from Lake Kawaguchi Station and ride along Lake Kawaguchi Bridge. The round trip is 9 kilometers, and it is not tiring to play and ride.
.
🚴♀️Rental suggestions
▫️Rent a car early, start queuing around 9 o'clock
▫️There are many uphill roads along the way, choose electric bicycles to save effort‼️
▫️There are many rental shops near Lake Kawaguchi Station, Google Map search "bike rental", rent a car nearby
▫️The shop where I rent a car is "81cake", 100 meters to the right of the station, the bicycle is very good-looking
.
🍁Play suggestions
▫️Maple leaf viewing time is late November to early December
▫️11 am and 3 pm, the sunlight is softer
▫️It is recommended to wear light-colored clothes to avoid the same color as the scenery
▫️One-day tour can arrange the maple leaf corridor in the morning, and the new warehouse Shanjian Shrine and Hikawa watch in the afternoon.
.
I hope everyone can see the red maple leaves🍁

Mount Fuji {No check-in} Day Tour
🚌Shinjuku Station Round trip Kawaguchiko Station
✨Tips:
1. Buy round-trip bus tickets online in advance! One-way 2200JPY/person
I bought the ticket a week in advance after referring to the 'Fujimi Forecast' on Google for the visibility of Mount Fuji. At that time, tickets for early departures were sold out. If you have high requirements for the completion of the plan, be sure to buy in advance!
2. Not only Shinjuku Station, but also Shibuya Station, Akihabara, etc., can be chosen according to proximity (accommodation location).
📍Kawaguchiko Tenjo-yama Park
The park is perfect for hiking up and down the mountain during the maple leaf season! It takes about an hour to walk one way, stop and take pictures. If you have plenty of time and are willing to climb the mountain, it is highly recommended
Stop searching! The complete guide to visiting Lake Kawaguchi is here
Lake Kawaguchi is one of the Fuji Five Lakes, and it offers great views in different seasons. Moreover, Lake Kawaguchi is well developed. After reading my content, you can enjoy Lake Kawaguchi like a nanny.
🚘Transportation: There are two ways to get to Lake Kawaguchi, one is by bus or train. My suggestion is to take the bus, which is direct and cheaper, around 100 RMB. You can buy it at the long-distance bus station at Shinjuku Station.
⛩️Attractions: There are many hot spring hotels around Lake Kawaguchi, and choosing a hot spring hotel is a good choice. In addition, you can visit Asama Shrine. When you get off at Lake Kawaguchi, you will see the popular convenience store in the second picture. Also, the boat tour of Lake Kawaguchi is worth a try.
💰Cost: If you choose to return on the same day, the daily cost may be around 200 RMB for transportation and about 300 RMB for attractions.
Tour Time: It is recommended to take the earliest bus to get there, so the queue will be less. If you plan to return on the same day, 6-8 hours is recommended.

World Heritage: Oshino-Hakkai, Tokyo 🇯🇵
#schoolholidays
When on a roadtrip around Tokyo, we had the opportunity to stop by Oshino-Hakkai, and even though it’s the start of winter and the weather was getting more gloomy, it was still very tranquil and lovely.
A UNESCO World Heritage site, Oshino-Hakkai is a beautiful village with many clear fish ponds with water from Mount Fuji’s melting snow.
Well worth a visit as it’s really peaceful and quaint.
My rating: 4 ⭐️ out of 5!

If yiu are lucky enough, you can also see Mt Fuji which enhances the aesthetics of the village. It is worth a trip there’s But be sure to go early as it tends to get crowded

Arakurayama Sengen Park Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Cherry blossom in Arakurayama Sengen Park
#cherryblossom2024
Cherry 🌸 flowers in Japan.
Arakumayama Sengen Park (Yamanashi Prefecture) is famous for their view of cherry blossoms 🌸 with a backdrop of Mt Fuji and the five-storied pagoda Churyo.
The park is located halfway up Mount Niikura, with approximately 650 cherry trees. In the spring, the Sakura Matsuri (cherry tree festival) is held. The park is famous for the fall season, but I climbed 398 steps to take a picture of the clouds buried in the green trees and Mt. Fuji.
Now it's a representative view of Japan. Around noon, you might have to wait for hours in a long line to get to the observation deck.

Mount Fuji view with pagoda!
Crowded, very very crowded especially I went during the peak season of sakura in April 2023.
If you intend to take a good photo with both pagoda and Mt Fuji, you may have to queue for at least one hour (it was 3 hours for my time and I didn’t queue for it) or you reach the destination before 7am.
Further, you have to be physically fit to climb the stairs which is about 400 steps up to the top of the pagoda view. The climb takes about 10-15 mins depends on individual’s fitness.
Arakurayama Sengen Park
Arakurayama Sengen Park is a park located in Fujiyoshida City, Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan. This park is famous for offering one of the best views of Mount Fuji, especially when cherry blossom season arrives.

Chureito Pagoda Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Just Like The Anime world 🏯🌸
#cherryblossom2024
Chureito Pagoda: I have been to Japan so many times, and this is my first time visiting Mount Fuji 🗻 at Kawaguchi Lake and a view of Chureito pagoda. Fortunately, the weather cleared up and I saw it very clearly~
📸I think going to this shallow shrine is the best shooting angle, with scenery and culture~
Arakurayama Sengen Park . The Fuji Chureito Pagoda was built during the Meiji period to commemorate those who died during mountain climbing activities on Mount Fuji. It is said that climbing Mount Fuji has a long tradition in Japanese history, but due to factors such as the steep terrain and harsh climate, many people unfortunat ely died during the climbing process. In commemoration of these victims, the Fuji Tadashi Pagoda was born.
People pray 🤲 for divine blessings in front of the tower 🛕, which can provide spiritual comfort and comfort.
📍Address: Shinkura 3353, Yoshida City, Fuji, Yamanashi Prefecture. Arrival method: Get off at Yoshida Railway 🚃 Station on the Fuji Express Line and walk for about 40 minutes from Yoshida Station on Chuo do; Friends with good physical strength can also rent bicycles 🚴 to ride from Hekou Lake, with a round-trip distance of about 10km.
🎟️Ticket: Free

This is Chureito Pagoda which is one of the most attractions places in Japan. You can see the breathtaking view from the top of the mountain. This spot is popular among influencers as well as photographers. However, 400 steps is needed to reach the top of the mountain. From my POV, sakura season and autumn are the most beautiful seasons to visit. #trip #japan
🗺️ How to get there
It can easily access by train or by car from Tokyo

This is Chureito Pagoda situated in Yamanashi prefecture. It is a ten minute walk from Shimo-Yoshida Station along the Fujikyu Railway Line. It was the perfect weather to see Mr Mount Fuji~ 😍The climb to the top of Chureito Pagoda was tough but the view is spectacular. However, there was a long queue to take the iconic photo of the pagoda with Mount Fuji, so you have to make sure you have plenty of time to queue! Overall, it was worth it 🥰
Stunning views
Getting There - by train, alight at Shimoyoshida station
Attractions - pagoda and mt Fuji
Food & Restaurants - there is store selling food at the base before going up the stairs
The 400 steps up to the top to get the stunning views.
Worth the time to visit and climb up
can slowly climb up if not physically fit
