Yamanashi Prefecture/Oshino Village
Oshino Hakkai
I went out of Lake Yamanaka and visited Oshino Hakkai 🚗 I had seen the sign for Oshino Hakkai before but always just passed it by. I went there for the first time as an adult and it was completely different from what I had imagined and it was a mysterious place 👏
The natural monument "Oshino Hakkai" is a spring-fed pond that originates from the underground water of Mt. Fuji.
Even though the pond is 8m deep, it is so clear that you can see all the way to the bottom and you can see the fish of various colors 🐠
There are shops around Oshino Hakkai and I got some dumplings and kusamochi 😋 You can enjoy eating while walking around ♡←Even though it's after lunch. lol
While exploring the area, I found Choshi Pond and Obon Pond 🌟 Maybe because there aren't many people here, there are life preservers nearby, so even if you drown, you're fine 🙆♀️ lol
●Address: Oshigusa, Oshino Village, Minamitsuru District, Yamanashi Prefecture
●Fee: Free
●Parking: Most of the parking lots around are 300 yen! It was 300 yen for places a little further away and nearby, so it seems better to come close ✌️ (self)
※It seems that there are places where parking is free if you buy souvenirs worth 600 yen
