A journey to discover breathtaking views in Yamanashi ✨ This time, we visited Oshino Hakkai, Mt. Fuji, and Arakura Fuji Sengen Shrine 🏔️
When you think of Yamanashi, you think of Mt. Fuji 🗻!
We visited spots where you can enjoy its beautiful scenery even more. This time, we introduce the pure spring-fed ponds of Oshino Hakkai and Arakura Fuji Sengen Shrine, a scenic spot that's popular with visitors from overseas.
🌊 Oshino Hakkai (Photos 1-5)
A mysterious spring where meltwater from Mt. Fuji has been bubbling away for decades.
Peering into the pond, you can clearly see the bottom! ✨ The combination of the clear blue water, the carp, and Mt. Fuji towering in the background is truly breathtaking.
Enjoy the different beauty of each season: cherry blossoms in spring 🌸, fresh greenery in summer 🌿, autumn leaves in autumn 🍁, and snowscapes in winter ❄️.

Next, we visited a popular spot offering panoramic views of the five-story pagoda and Mt. Fuji.
After climbing approximately 400 steps from the shrine grounds, the observation deck offers a perfect view of Mt. Fuji, the five-story pagoda, and cherry blossoms! 📸
Especially during cherry blossom season, the breathtaking scenery is truly "quintessentially Japanese," captivating visitors from both within Japan and abroad.
