Detailed itinerary

Arakurayama Sengen Park, located in Fujiyoshida, Japan, is renowned for offering one of the most iconic and picturesque views of Mt. Fuji alongside the striking five-storied Chureito Pagoda. This scenic spot becomes especially popular during cherry blossom season in spring, when pink blooms frame the mountain perfectly. Reaching the viewpoint requires a short hike up a series of stairs, but the breathtaking panorama makes the effort worthwhile. The Chureito Pagoda, built as a peace memorial, stands as the centerpiece of the park. Visitors also flock here in autumn for vibrant foliage and in winter for snow-capped landscapes. With stunning views in every season, it’s a favorite among photographers and Mt. Fuji enthusiasts. The park combines natural beauty with cultural charm, making it a must-visit destination.

Oshino Hakkai is a charming traditional village located between Lake Kawaguchiko and Lake Yamanakako, known for its eight crystal-clear spring ponds fed by snowmelt from Mt. Fuji. The name “Hakkai” means “eight seas,” referring to these beautifully preserved water features. Surrounded by traditional thatched-roof houses and water mills, the village offers a glimpse into old rural Japan. The spring water is renowned for its purity and clarity, often considered sacred. Visitors can stroll along quaint pathways, enjoy local snacks, and shop for handicrafts and souvenirs. On clear days, the ponds reflect stunning views of Mt. Fuji in the background. Oshino Hakkai blends nature, culture, and history into a peaceful and scenic experience.
