Arakurayama Sengen Park:
This famous park is home to the stunning Chureito Pagoda, a five-story memorial tower. It's a top destination for photographers and nature lovers alike, offering an unparalleled view of Mount Fuji, especially during the cherry blossom season in spring and when the leaves change color in autumn.
Kawaguchiko Craft Park:
Unleash your creativity at this unique craft center. You can choose from a variety of workshops, such as glass beading, sandblasting, or making a gel candle. This stop also includes a delicious and authentic Kobe beef shabu-shabu set meal, a quintessential Japanese hot pot experience where you cook thin slices of premium beef in a simmering broth.
Oishi Park:
Located on the northern shore of Lake Kawaguchi, Oishi Park is renowned for its spectacular scenery. With Mount Fuji rising majestically across the water, the park is a perfect place for a leisurely walk along the promenade, known as "Flower Street," which is decorated with seasonal blossoms.
Saiko Iyashi no Sato Nenba:
Step back in time at this open-air museum. This reconstructed village features traditional thatched-roof houses that were once common in the area. Explore the historic homes, which now serve as craft studios, shops, and restaurants, and immerse yourself in a serene atmosphere that offers a glimpse into old-world Japan.
