Address: Oshino, Minamitsuru District, Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan 📍 (between Lakes Kawaguchiko and Yamanakako)

Atmosphere/Location:
Oshino Hakkai is a small, quiet village in the Fuji Five Lakes area near Mt. Fuji. 🗻 The atmosphere is full of nature and a traditional Japanese atmosphere. 🍃 There are 8 crystal clear ponds formed by the snowmelt of Mt. Fuji that has seeped through the lava rocks for over 80 years. 💦 The ponds are deep and clear enough to see the fish and aquatic plants clearly. 🐟 There are old-fashioned thatched-roof houses around. 🏡 and shops that give a retro feel. Perfect for a relaxing stroll or taking beautiful photos 📸, especially on a clear day when you can clearly see Mt. Fuji as a stunning backdrop ✨

Highlights:
- 8 Clear Ponds: Each pond has its own unique identity, such as Deguchi-ike Pond, which is 8 meters deep 💧 and Kagami-ike Pond, which reflects Mt. Fuji like a mirror 🪞
- Fuji View: If the sky is clear, you will be able to see Mt. Fuji in full view. It is a photo spot that you can't miss! 🗻📷
- Local Food: Shops sell Japanese sweets such as Kusa Mochi (herbal mochi) 🍡 and Oshino soba made with the local purified water 🍜
- Hannoki Bayashi Museum: Small open-air museum (300 yen admission) featuring agricultural tools and samurai weapons ⚔️ with an old house to explore 🏠

Average price per person:
- Admission: Free (except for the museum 300 yen ~ 70 baht) 🎟️
- Food/Snacks: 300-800 yen (about 70-190 baht) 🍵
- Access from Kawaguchiko Station by bus: 310 yen (about 75 baht) takes about 20-30 minutes 🚍

Score: 4.5/5 ⭐
Oshino Hakkai is a place that perfectly combines nature and culture 🌿 The clarity of the pond and the view of Fuji make you feel peaceful and very impressed 💖 Suitable for those who want to escape the hustle and bustle and experience authentic Japan. A little deducted because during the time when there are a lot of tourists, it may spoil the atmosphere a bit 😅 But if you come early in the morning or on a weekday, it will be even better! Highly recommended! 😍
