2025 Yamanashi Prefecture Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in March)

#2024Travel Review I went to Kawaguchiko for two days and one night in early November. Snow had just started to fall on the top of Mount Fuji. It was particularly late this year, so I couldn't see the white-headed snow. I checked the visibility forecast online and it was 6 on the first day and 10 on the second day. In fact, I would be satisfied just by seeing Mount Fuji. With only two days, we decided to visit the main attractions around Lake Kawaguchi, Lake Yamanaka, and Lake Saiko. 🗓️Day 1: Narusawa Ice Cave, Wind Cave, Reagan Field of Healing and Oishi Park. **Transportation Ticket: One-Day Bus Ticket for Lake Kawaguchi, Lake Saiko, Lake Shoji, and Lake Motosu: 1,500 yen, which allows unlimited rides on the Red Line (Lake Kawaguchi), Green Line (Lake Saiko), and Blue Line (Narusawa, Lake Shoji, and Lake Motosu) on the same day. In the morning, take the first Blue Line (9:35) for half an hour to the Ice Cave. After the visit, walk to the Wind Cave for a visit, and then take the Green Line to the Reagan Field of Healing. After the end of the root field, take the green line back to the "Yamanashi Gem Museum" where it intersects with the red line, and then transfer to the red line to Oishi Park (which can be replaced with any scenic spot you want to visit in Kawaguchiko). 🗓️Day 2: Oshino Hakkai, Arakurayama Sengen Shrine, Fujihonmachi Street, Kawaguchiko Tenjoyama Park. **No transportation ticket was purchased. At 6:50 in the morning, take the Fuji Lake Bus from Kawaguchiko Station and arrive at Oshino Hakkai in about half an hour. First visit the ponds that can be visited; Indeba Pond is located in the Hazelwood Forest Folk Museum and is open at 9 o'clock. It is also the only one that requires a ticket. After visiting the Deba Pond, take a bus to Fuji Station, then take the train to Shimoyoshida Station, and walk from Shimoyoshida Station to Arakurayama Sengen Shrine. From here, you can also take a detour to Fujihonmachi-dori, a popular photo spot recently. After visiting Arakurayama Sengen Shrine, take the train from Shimoyoshida Station back to Kawaguchiko Station, walk 17 minutes to the Tenjoyama Park Cable Car Boarding Area, and take the cable car up the mountain (you can also take the Tensei-go to cruise the lake instead, the boat stop is just opposite the cable car station). √Hazelwood Museum: 09:00-17:00 💰Tickets: 300 yen for adults. √Fuji Michi Honmachi Street Address: 1-4-25 Shimoyoshida, Fujiyoshida City, Yamanashi Prefecture √Tenjoyama Park: 09:00-17:00 💰Round trip ticket for the sightseeing bus: 1,000 yen. On the first day when visibility was 6, I didn’t see Mount Fuji the whole day, only thick clouds. On the second day with visibility of 10, Mount Fuji was very clear in the early morning, but as the sun grew bigger, it gradually became blurry after 11 o'clock. But the two-day trip to chase Mount Fuji was very beautiful and I was very happy. #Kawaguchiko #Reagan Field of Healing

#fallvibes fall/autumn in Japan is called Aki- A time to reset! Autumn season the beautiful change of green foliage to vibrant reds, oranges, yellows, and purples. The turning of the leaves in Japan varies due to temperature, elevation, and latitude, and the best time to experience the phenomenon differs every year. During Autumn in Japan attracts more tourist and is the best viewing times. During my stay in Japan with my sister and Japanese brother-in-law, I learn so many things in life. While I was walking on the street, the leaves slowly and softly falling down and created a carpet like on the ground. While I was in awe with the beauty of fall, looking closely with the fallen leaves is life is like the autumn of human life. The trees are full of colour, vibrant energy and life, but this is short lived. Though for the leaves is the end cycle of life it still show grace and beauty til the end of time. so as we should reset our mind to fight our battles and end with grace til end of time. Choose kindness and overflow with love.

If you stop by the Dangosaka Service Area, you should try this! The "dan" character on this bean bun makes a big impact. 300 yen each. It's wrapped tightly in plastic wrap instead of in a bag, so you can enjoy the freshly baked, chewy and moist texture. They also have madeleines made with Mt. Fuji milk and Yatsugatake eggs. I bought this along with my personal favorite, kusamochi. Make sure to try it on your drive! #gourmet #bean bun #Dangozakasa

#TravelJapan #ChureitoPagoda is located in Arakurayama Sengen Park. This park is located near Lake Yamanakako and Lake Kawaguchiko. If you visit #LakeKawaguchiko, you can easily visit the red pagoda, which is a highlight for viewing #Fujisan. The image of the red 5-story #ChureitoPagoda, which appears with Mt. Fuji as a backdrop in different seasons, has become a major highlight that makes people around the world want to see this view at least once in their lives. At the bottom of the pagoda, there is a shrine where people can come to pay their respects before walking up the steep stairs to the top of the mountain. For teenagers, it may not be difficult, but for the elderly, it may be a bit difficult to climb. When you reach the top of the mountain, you will see a beautiful view of Yamanashi Prefecture, including the red 5-story pagoda. On a clear day, Mt. Fuji will appear clearly. In spring, the image of pink cherry blossoms makes the atmosphere even more beautiful. Or if it is autumn, the surrounding leaves will turn beautiful yellow and red. In winter, covered in snow, it is also beautiful in another way. It can be said that it is beautiful in every season. On the day we went, it was mid-October, the leaves were still green and it was raining, so the clouds covered the area and we couldn't see #Mt.Fuji clearly, so we could only see the image of the 5-story red pagoda. But after walking down for a while, the numbers covering it all disappeared, which was a bit of a pity. But it's okay because it is said that Mt.Fuji is a shy mountain and doesn't show itself easily. Some people have to go more than 3 times to see it, so next time we will definitely go again!!

🌺🌺 Remember the sweet peas Chihiro carried on the way out with her parents in the Studio Ghibli film *Spirited Away*? Warm and natural. When Chihiro cried sadly, Haku crouched in a field full of azaleas in the Japanese countryside to comfort her. These everyday flowers in Japan bring people closer to nature and allow them to heal in nature.🌺🌺 🌈🌈🌈🌈Great places to explore Japanese flowers 📍Ibaraki Prefecture/Hitachi Seaside Park—Nemophila Approximately 4.2 hectares of Miharashi Hill is covered with about 5.3 million delicate blue nemophila flowers, which look even more brilliant against the azure sky. Strolling through it is like walking on a vibrant blue carpet. 📍Yamanashi Prefecture/Fuji Motosuko Resort—Shibazakura Held annually from mid-April to late May, the "Fuji Shibazakura Festival" is the largest shibazakura spectacle in the Tokyo metropolitan area. The bright shibazakura "carpet" frames the snow-capped Mount Fuji, providing a truly moving experience. 📍Hiroshima Prefecture/Senkoji Park—Wisteria Senkoji Park's cherry blossoms are selected as one of the "100 Best Cherry Blossom Viewing Spots in Japan," but the wisteria here is also a breathtaking sight. The wisteria hangs like a purple waterfall, swaying in the wind. 📍Saga Prefecture/Daikozenji Temple—Azaleas Daikozenji Temple, home to numerous cultural heritage sites, is also known as the "Azalea Temple" for its colorful azalea blossoms. About 50,000 azaleas bloom from mid-April to early May, filling visitors with joy and wonder. 📍Akita Prefecture/Unchoji Temple—Hydrangeas Ranked first on the list of Japanese scenic spots as a "must-see destination in a lifetime." During the blooming season, the entire temple is transformed into a blue ocean, complementing the beautiful seascape of the nearby Oga Peninsula, creating a breathtaking view.

I went to Sanrokuen in Yamanashi Prefecture♪ The restaurant is near Lake Kawaguchi, so it's a great place to go for a drive🙆🏼♀️ In this charming old-style gassho-style restaurant, you can sit around the back of the fireplace and enjoy robatayaki, but it's actually served in a style where you grill and eat your own ingredients☺️ It's something you don't get to experience very often, so it was fun✨ This time I ordered the Shingen Course (5,500 yen). The fish was so fresh that it was still moving before it was grilled🐟 The best part is being able to eat your favorite ingredients at your favorite time and how cooked you want♡ In addition to the simple charcoal grilled food, we also had a Yamanashi specialty, "hoto," at the end♪ It was delicious with a warm and gentle taste😋 If you go to Yamanashi, please try it❣️ #0 yen trip
