The most worthwhile attractions in Japan, Mount Fuji, Lake Kawaguchi, Fuji Omuro Sengen Shrine, go deep into the quiet place

#日本必去打卡点
I cycled around Lake Kawaguchi and selected a few places I thought were must-sees. They were beautiful, quiet, and sparsely populated, and great for taking photos. I highly recommend Fujiomuro Sengen Shrine. The towering trees and the quiet shrine, with occasional visitors, bring a sense of the world. It seems like a place out of this world. There aren't many guides on major platforms, so I'll fill in the gap.

—⛩Location
The exact location of Fujiomuro Sengen Shrine is 3951 Katsuyama, Fujikawaguchiko, Minamitsuru District, Yamanashi 401-0310 Japan. The transportation is not very convenient, so it is recommended to ride a bike. It takes a long time to wait for the bus. There is a parking lot nearby, and you can also drive there.

—⛩How to play
You can go in and ask for amulets, there are many New Year limited items, and you can also worship, but please pay attention to the business hours. There are some limited activities, which will be posted on their official website. If there are any plans, please check for details.

—📎About Fujiomuro Sengen Shrine
⛩It consists of two shrines, the main shrine and the sato shrine. Currently, the main shrine is located on the shore of Lake Kawaguchi. The two shrines are built opposite each other and can be visited. In 1971, it was designated as a Besepyo-jinja shrine by the shrine headquarters. In February 2011, the Okunomiya precincts of the second station of Mount Fuji and the current Hongu-satonomiya precincts were designated as "Mount Fuji Historic Sites", and in 2013 they were designated as "Mount Fuji Registration" as a source of art.

⛩Sometimes you will encounter many moving points on the road. On the way to this shrine, I met a grandfather playing the violin in front of his shop accompanied by the fire. At the foot of Mount Fuji, on the quiet country road, when the sound of the violin flowed out, I felt that the whole time stood still. If you come here too, if he happens to play, please don't miss it.
