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:

2️】Gojuban Japanese-style hotel: clean, with communal baths and restrooms, does not include breakfast, no air conditioning, tatami mats

Beautiful and relaxing view at Lake Kawaguchi. Comfortable hot spring with an amazing Mount Fuji view.
It was beautiful 🤩. Perfect place to catch the Mount Fuji and it is so peaceful and zen at this area so scenic! 100% recommended to visit~ Take the Kawaguchi bus pass to hop on all the different routes
Beautiful! And even more so when seen from Mt Fuji ropeway with Mt Fuji in the background! Do spend a night or 2 here so you can enjoy the view and visit its surrounding attractions!
I have been there few times and always want to go back every time after my trip. If you still debating to go there or not. The answer is yes. you won’t regret it.
Major platforms have experience itinerary to buy, no need to drive by themselves, very convenient. Be sure to go to the attractions of Mount Fuji in the morning, and the probability of seeing the mountain view in the afternoon is usually low. The scenery of Oishi Park in Kawaguchiko is beautiful, Ice-cream is delicious, there are also attractions such as ice caves, Ninye Bahai around Kawaguchiko Lake, Yamanashi local cuisine ほうとう No move Baodao pot is also very delicious, recommended to friends who go to Kawaguchi Lake to play.
It is recommended to do a speedboat. It is super comfortable when the wind blows over! The speedboat captain will also help everyone to take punch-in photos, very enthusiastic. The speedboat captain will also say that you are very lucky. It just so happens that Mount Fuji has a face! Remind everyone that it is difficult to take Mount Fuji when it is easy to fog in summer. It is relatively good to take pictures of Mount Fuji in winter. Don't be discouraged if you don't take pictures. It's God who will ask you to come here again to take pictures.
People who love self-service travel, their bodies may be flowing in the blood of gypsies, not love to be restricted by norms, nor willing to be bound by time, and have the greatest freedom and flexibility during travel. It is the ideal and goal pursued by all people who love self-service travel! Traveling in the resort with invincible views of Mount Fuji~Kawaguchiko, although there are very perfect and convenient Kawaguchiko tour buses, cable cars, and cruise ships in the local area; But it is inevitable to cooperate with the bus time to wait for the bus to take a ride. There is a time pressure of being afraid of missing the shuttle bus. So~~ I want to visit the beautiful scenery around Kawaguchiko Lake as I want, and riding a bicycle to Kawaguchiko Lake is a great choice! There are bicycles to walk, no time pressure, no need to wait for the bus, you can use the best speed to suit your own journey. The first two days of this three-day and two-night trip to Kawaguchiko, the weather was very good, we took the bicycle to walk, there was no parking problem for self-driving, and there was no need to wait in line for the bus, and we easily rode the bicycle to visit the maple leaf cloister during the day and night; Go to the Shinyazaki Shrine to chase the red leaves in the morning against Fuji, enjoy Mount Fuji all the way to the left-behind rock shore to enjoy the maple; also ride to the most popular punching attractions in Honmachi Erdingmu, and the Shrine in the shallows of Xincang Mountain to enjoy the maple! (If you take a bus, you can't make these two attractions a net!)
