#忍野八海

Located in Oshino Village, Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan, Oshino Hakkai is a well-known tourist attraction consisting of eight ponds, including Deguchi Pond, Okama Pond, Ditetsu Pond, Choshi Pond, Okui Pond, Turbid Pond, Mirror Pond, and Acorus Pond. Most of the ponds are filled with underground springs gushing out from the melted snow of Mount Fuji. The water is pure and clear. There are many trouts swimming leisurely in the ponds. There are fish feeds sold in nearby businesses, and children can come here to feed the fish. Every trout is very healthy and beautiful, which is very suitable for people like me who like to watch the fish swim leisurely. But be careful not to throw coins into the pond, as this is harmful to the fish, even if there are many coins in the pond that are visible to the naked eye. The traditional thatched cottages in the village, combined with the beautiful view of Mount Fuji in the distance, are a beautiful sight that heals travelers. We visited this quiet village in spring. It is recommended to come early. After about 10 o'clock, there will be more and more tourists, but it still cannot cover up the quiet beauty of this village. It is highly recommended that people who come to Mount Fuji 🗻 include this attraction in their itinerary. #Japan #japan #Tokyo #Tokyo #Fuji #fuji_mount #Fuji_Mount_Fuji_Day_Tour #Yamanashi #Oshinohakkai #Trout #AprilGoodDestinations2025

Oshino Hakkai is a small village with 8 ponds. The pond was formed by volcanic eruptions and intensive volcanic activity. The water comes from underground springs and is rich in minerals. The water in Yongchi is extremely clear and clean, and was listed as one of the best springs in the country in 1985. There are shops in the village selling snacks and souvenirs. Many souvenirs are printed with Mount Fuji images. For snacks, you can try the grass cake with mugwort. Mugwort is a herb native to the growing area around Oshino Hakkai. The Kusamochi is stuffed with red bean paste, and the overall texture is similar to red bean mochi. ——— Oshino Hakkai 📬 〒401-0511 Yamanashi Prefecture Minamitsuru County Oshino Village Shinobikusa #Oshino Hakkai #Kawaguchiko #Kawaguchiko Free Travel #Fuji #Fujisan Free Travel #Kawaguchiko Travel #Fujisan Travel #Tokyo Travel #Tokyo Free Travel #Tokyo #Japan Travel #Japan Free Travel #Japan #Tokyo Itinerary

On February 25, 2024, I arrived at Lake Kawaguchi in Yamanashi Prefecture. It was snowing heavily that day, and I thought I might not be able to see Mount Fuji. However, I could still enjoy the snowy scenery. To my surprise, the next morning, the sky was clear, and as soon as I opened the curtains, there was Mount Fuji in all its glory. The photos can only capture a fraction of its magnificence. I visited the Kawaguchiko Music Forest, the Chureito Pagoda, and Oshino Hakkai. Each place offered stunning views of the snow-covered Mount Fuji, making it perfect for a five-day, four-night trip. However, if you plan to ride a bicycle, I recommend choosing a day with temperatures above 10 degrees Celsius. Otherwise, the snow on the roads might make it difficult to ride, and you might not even be able to rent a bike.

The water here comes from the melted snow of Mount Fuji, which seeps into the ground and then gushes out, so it is very clear and clean. You can clearly see the fish swimming in the pond; if you watch from a distance, the pond reflects the blue sky and surrounding scenery like a mirror, and when paired with Mount Fuji, it is very beautiful to take photos, so there are many tourists here. #Mount Fuji If you want to avoid the tourist crowds a bit, you can arrive at Oshino Hakkai earlier and visit the pond that does not require a ticket first, then buy a ticket to visit the Deba Pond located in the museum when the museum opens at 9 o'clock (adult ticket is 300 yen). In addition, the exit pool, which is the largest among the eight seas, is farther away, 15 minutes away from the other seven seas, so it has fewer tourists and is quieter. #Oshino Hakka Of course, you can come here not only to enjoy the beautiful scenery and take your favorite photos. There are many restaurants and souvenirs to choose from beside the artificial pond. You may also want to try the tofu made with the spring water here and other delicious Japanese snacks. Address: Shinobukusa, Oshino Village, Minamitsuru County, Yamanashi Prefecture Access: Take the bus from Fujikyuko Line's Fujisan Station for about 20 minutes, get off at Oshino-Hakkai Station, and then walk for 5 minutes. If you don't want to change buses, you can also find a nearby bus stop and take a bus directly.

#outing There are pleasant scenery everywhere around Mount Fuji. I think it is a charming place no matter it is spring, summer, autumn or winter. I often think that without Mount Fuji, the Fuji Five Lakes might only be considered lakes with beautiful scenery, but with Mount Fuji, everything here becomes more romantic! This time I arranged a two-day and one-night trip to Mount Fuji. I was lucky enough to see the complete appearance of Mount Fuji. I will also share the scenic spots I visited during these two days for your reference~ Oshino Hakkai It is composed of 8 clear springs. Not only can you overlook Mount Fuji in the distance, but you can also take a picture of the inverse Fuji from the mirror pond. Yamanakako The largest lake among the five lakes. If you are lucky, you can take a perfect inverse Fuji photo here. Unfortunately, part of the lake was frozen when I went there. If you are driving by yourself, you can go to Nagaike Water Park, which is said to be the best place to view the Inverse Fuji! golden torii gate Also known as the "Karakin Torii", this place is also considered the dividing point between Mount Fuji and the world. West Lake Regan Field Japan’s traditional thatched house settlement, with the traditional thatched houses paired with Mount Fuji in the distance, it is really a must-visit recommendation! There are also many experience courses to experience during holidays, which are very suitable for parent-child itinerary arrangements. Tickets are not expensive~~350 yen for adults and 150 yen for children Jingjin Lake. Fuji If you are going by shuttle bus, be sure to confirm the timetable Because there are relatively few buses, if you miss the bus while taking photos, you will have to wait for a long time! Narusawa Ice Cave and Fugaku Wind Cave Later, I thought that if you don’t have enough time, you can choose to experience the wind cave or the ice cave! In comparison, the ice cave is steeper and more tortuous. There is one place where you almost have to climb to get through it. If you are traveling with people with good physical strength, I suggest you choose the ice cave to go there. It feels very adventurous~ But if you are bringing the elderly or children, it is more recommended to go to the stable wind cave. Then be sure to wear a helmet when entering the cave! It’s really easy to scratch your scalp, don’t be cool~~ Lake Kawaguchi Natural Life Museum In winter, there are whole fields of miscanthus swaying in the wind, which is another kind of scenery when paired with Mount Fuji. If you get tired of walking around, there is also a cafe where you can buy a drink or ice cream to enjoy Mount Fuji. If you visit in other seasons, there are also flower fields you can see here. Fuji Oishi Hashira There is a small shopping mall next to Lake Kawaguchi Natural Life Museum, which can be reached in about 5 minutes on foot. In addition to selling local products here. In addition to handmade goods, there are also restaurants and cafes. The park uses white exterior walls and paving stones to highlight the beauty of flowers and plants. In addition, there are hidden statues of endangered animals to find. If you have no other arrangements after the Natural Life Museum, you might as well come here for a walk. Famous thing Fudo ほうとう Full of wild vegetables and springy noodles, I quite like the taste, but I may feel a little tired after eating it, but it is really happy to have a bowl of ほうとう in the cold weather For transportation, I used the Jrpass combined with a two-day pass for the Mt. Fuji tour bus Ticket name: Lake Kawaguchi, Saiko, Narusawa, Lake Shojin, Lake Motosu Erisa Commons You can ride on all tour bus lines (Red Line, Green Line & Blue Line), adults 1,700 yen, children 850 yen The CP value of the two-day tour bus ticket is really high! Just taking two or three trips to Lake Kawaguchi will almost make your money back. Of course, there are many art museums and cable cars around Lake Kawaguchi and Lake Yamanaka. Amphibious bus. Swan boats, etc. can be arranged for the trip Or you can visit Lake Motosu, which is further away, and admire Mount Fuji on the thousand yen bill. It’s also a good choice! #Fuji山 beautiful scenery #dopamine travel #100 ways to travel #Oshino Hakkai #金TORIi #山中湖 #波子Fuji #shojinko #风 cave #ice cave

#Outing Oshino Hakkai is a small village located at the foot of Mount Fuji. It is called Oshino Hakkai because of the eight clear springs. When the weather is fine and there is no wind, it is like a mirror in the sky, reflecting Mount Fuji and the blue sky and white clouds. There were almost no tourists when I came, so I could enjoy the quiet little village. You can take a photo of the thatched house and Mount Fuji from almost every angle In addition, the Middle Pond and Mirror Pond are both suitable for photographing the reverse Fuji! The shop next to it also sells food and souvenirs. There are also empty bottles for sale here so you can fill them with snow water from Mount Fuji and take them away 🤣 (If you bring your own bottles, you can also fill them for free!) There is also a small pool next to the pond that you can put your hands into (Figure 4) Put your hands in for 30 seconds to purify your whole body~~ 📍Address: Shibokusa, Oshino, Minamitsuru District, Yamanashi 401-0511 Japan How to get there: Take the Fujikyuko bus to Oshino Hakkai Station and walk for about 10 minutes. #100TravelWays #DopamineTravel #MountFuji #MountFujiBeautifulViews #OshinoHakkai

#100 Ways to Travel Oshino Hakkai - "The sun shines in the west, dyeing the warm spring with a glazed green mood" ℹ️Introduction: Oshino Hakkai is a scenic spot located in Yamanashi Prefecture, Tokyo. It is one of the important elements of "Mount Fuji🗻" and also has the titles of "National Natural Monument", "National Famous Water 100 Selections" and "World Cultural Heritage, Part of Mount Fuji"! ! The "sea" here actually refers to a "pool" or "lake". Any scenic spot and any angle are great for taking photos👍! ! Many Japanese people believe that this is the most energetic place in the country, so it is also known as the "Genba Lake Spiritual Field"~ 📖Small supplement: The Oshino Hakkai are considered an important energy attraction because of their "shape" that resembles the "North Star" and the "Big Dipper" arrangement; the "water quality" is clear and pure, rich in minerals, and the "water flow" is also amazing, with about 1 million tons of underground water from Mount Fuji flowing out every day~~~There are many people in Japan🇯🇵 who believe in Mount Fuji🗻, so before climbing🧗, they will perform a "water walk" purification ceremony in the eight ponds. According to legend, each of the eight ponds is guarded by a Dragon King🐲! 👀Important points: "Exit Pond": It is the largest and farthest pond, and it takes about 15 minutes to walk from Oshino Village. This pond is considered the "North Star" and has the least people among all the ponds! ! It’s also a great place to enjoy the maple leaves 🍁~ grab it quickly 🫴! ! "Kettle Pond": The smallest area but the most abundant water! The pool is clear and deep, and you can see the swaying "plum algae" in the pool. "Dibata Pond": Located in the exhibition facility "Hazelnut Forest Folklore Museum" (Hazelnut Forest Folklore Museum), it is the spring pond that retains the most of the old style in the Eight Seas. It is said that the building of the museum is the oldest in all of Oshino Village! ! And it is also the only pool that requires "⚠️charges"❗️ "Choshi Pond": It is said that it got its name because its shape resembles the ancient long-handled wine vessel "Choshi". At the bottom of the pond, you can clearly see the water bubbling up from the sand and stirring the sand. It is also a good place to "make friends" with others! ! Why don't you bring the person you are interested in with you? "Yongchi": It is named after the large amount of water flowing out. It is also the busiest place among all the pools. According to statistics, the daily water flow can reach 8.4 million liters. It is the most suitable place for drinking water and irrigation among all the pools. "Turbid Pond": The pond is super clear! ! Legend has it that a ragged traveler begged for a bowl of water from the local residents but was refused, so the water in the pond became turbid, hence the name. "Mirror Pond": A great place to take photos of "Fuji in reverse"! ! The main theme is "the water is like a mirror", so it is said that this pond has the ability to "distinguish right from wrong", so whenever there is a quarrel among the villagers, they will come to the pond to purify themselves and pray. It's super cool ~ It reminds me of the story of the six-eared macaque in Journey to the West ~ Hahahaha "Acorus calamus pond": The pond is surrounded by calamus, which is a common plant during the Dragon Boat Festival. It has the effect of bringing good luck and avoiding evil. There is a very sad and romantic love story in the local area. It is said that there was a young couple living near this pond in the past, and the husband contracted a very serious lung disease. The wife was at a loss and could only pray to the gods and Buddhas for help. So she cleansed herself in the calamus pond and prayed wholeheartedly. On the 37th day, she heard a voice from God: "Take calamus from the pond and wrap it around the patient, and the disease will go away." The wife followed God's instructions, and in less than a month, her husband was miraculously healed - Wow! ! Amazing! "Nakaike": In fact, it does not belong to the scope of Oshino Hakkai. It is an "artificially" dug pond. The pond is small but very deep and clear. When the weather is good, there is a deep blue color, which looks like blue eyes and will attract you deeply. You can also drink Fuji spring water here, so it is always crowded with travelers! ! 🍜Must-eat food: "Kusa Mochi" (草もち): It is mochi made from local mugwort, and it emphasizes that it is all natural! There is a light fragrance ~ very comfortable "Makigoku" (串団子): If you have been to Japan, you should be familiar with it. You can see it almost everywhere, but the special thing is that the local shops have their own unique secret recipe, so it tastes a little different~ "Temaki-do": Located near "Wakuraike", they have about 40 kinds of pancakes made with domestic rice and specially blended soy sauce and sauces! The store insists on using charcoal to grill pancakes with a diameter of about 15 cm. It is said that the far infrared rays of the charcoal make the pancakes more crispy and fragrant, which is an effect that cannot be achieved by mechanical baking. Don't forget to try it 🤤 "Ikemoto Teahouse": It is recommended to eat "rock fish" or "Yamame fish". The daily limit is not fixed, depending on the amount caught that day. "Yamame fish" is a close relative of "Sakura Landlocked Salmon"! ! It's very high-grade meat. 📍Address: Shinobukusa, Oshino Village, Minamitsuru County, Yamanashi Prefecture 🚴Transportation: Take the route bus from Fujikyuko Line "Fujisan Station" for about 20 minutes, get off at "Oshino Hakkai Station" and walk for about 5 minutes 「⚠️You can take the Limited Express Fuji Excursion from JR Shinjuku Station or the express bus from JR Tokyo Station to Mount Fuji Station」 💰Per capita consumption: Bottom draw pool - 300 yen, others free 🆓 🕰️Business hours: Diba Pond and Folklore Museum: 09:00-17:00, others open all day! 🗓️Itinerary: "One-day tour plan": Tokyo Station → (Train about 15 minutes) → Shinjuku Station → (Highway bus about 2 hours and 10 minutes) → Oshino Hakkai → (Walk about 90 minutes) Visit 8 hot springs → (Walk) → Eat soba noodles and grilled fish at Ikemoto Teahouse → (Bus about 30 minutes) → Kawaguchiko Station → (Walk about 10 minutes) → Take a Kawaguchiko sightseeing boat for about 20 minutes → (Walk about 15 minutes) → Walk in Oike Park and view Mt.

#ItinerarySharing #100Travelways It was my first time traveling alone in Tokyo, so I signed up for a one-day tour of the famous Mt. Fuji check-in spots. It is designed specifically for travelers who like taking photos. It has a special car to pick you up, a special guide, and you can take beautiful photos all the time. I went to five attractions in one go, making full use of the time for a one-day tour. I highly recommend it! ✓ Itinerary: Tokyo-Lawson convenience store-Kawaguchiko Oishi Park-Oshino Hakkai-Yoshida Clock Street-Arakura Fuji Sengen Shrine ✓ Transportation strategy: Take a bus from Tokyo Station and get off at Shinjuku Station on the way back. It is a very fulfilling one-day tour from 8 am to 5 pm. ✓Must-visit attractions: #河口湖lawson A well-known Mt. Fuji Internet beauty spot, where you can take photos and eat ice cream while framing the convenience store and Mt. Fuji. The stay time is about half an hour. #FujiShanDaishiPark is located on the shore of Lake Kawaguchi, a great location for a perfect view of Mount Fuji. In addition to admiring Mount Fuji, the park is also filled with various flowers, including lavender and poppy grass. You can also eat curry at the lakeside store. The lake view from the second floor is amazing! The stay time is 2 hours. #忍野八海 A small village at the foot of Mount Fuji, with traditional thatched roof buildings. After the snow from Mount Fuji melted, eight unique pools were formed here, with clear water. Oshino Hakkai has a bustling shopping street, which is very convenient for shopping and eating. The stay time is 2 hours. #吉田時計街 A street near Yoshida Station. It is very popular because you can take photos with Mount Fuji as the background at the intersection. It has become a popular check-in spot for IG celebrities. But after all, there are many cars on the road, so when taking pictures, you must obey traffic rules and be careful of other vehicles. Stay time 10 minutes. #新仓富士浅间神社 is also located near Yoshida Station. After taking pictures of the clock street, we climbed the stairs. There are more than 300 steps in the Arakura Park, which are steep and difficult to climb. I almost gave up at one point, but the shrine and the five-story pagoda on the top of the mountain are so beautiful, and with Mount Fuji as the background, it should be beautiful if you visit during the cherry blossom season and the red leaf season! The stay time is 2 hours. ✓ Shopping Guide: There are two places to shop during the entire trip, one is the store in Oishi Park, and the other is Oshino Hakkai. The souvenir shop in Oshino Hakkai is larger, and with the shopping streets on the street, you can buy some representative Mount Fuji souvenirs. #FujisanDayTour #Fujisan #Kawaguchiko #ItinerarySharing #100TravelWays

Located in Oshino Village, Yamanashi Prefecture, this area was once a lake. After several eruptions of Mount Fuji and over a long period, the lake eventually dried up. The meltwater from Mount Fuji then seeped underground and emerged in several places, forming a number of spring ponds. The most representative eight are Deguchi Pond, Okama Pond, Sokonashi Pond, Choshi Pond, Waku Pond, Nigori Pond, Kagami Pond, and Shobu Pond. These are designated as Natural Monuments of Japan, selected as one of the 100 Famous Waters, and included in the New Fuji 100 Views. Transportation Guide: The most convenient way is to take the Fujikyu Railway Line and get off at 'Fujisan Station,' then transfer to the Fujikyu Route Bus. It takes about 20 minutes to reach Oshino Hakkai. Although Oshino Hakkai is located in Yamanashi Prefecture, it is actually quite far from the prefectural capital, Kofu City, and there are currently no direct trains or buses. There are many tourists in every season, so it is recommended to start early in the morning to get photos without crowds. Among the eight ponds, only 'Sokonashi Pond' requires a ticket, while the others are free to visit. Among these eight ponds, 'Waku Pond' has the most abundant spring water and is the busiest central area, surrounded by many souvenir shops. Opposite it is a watermill, and the daily spring water volume is about 8.4 million liters. The water is extremely clear, and you can easily see the koi swimming in the crystal blue water. Each of the eight ponds has a different story. In the medieval period, this place was a spiritual training ground for Fuji ascetics, and the eight ponds are based on the teachings of the Lotus Sutra, dedicated to the Eight Dragon Kings, which is quite unique. It takes about 2 to 2.5 hours to tour the entire Oshino Hakkai. When there are fewer tourists, it is very comfortable to walk around, and the scenery is beautiful like a paradise. There are small vendors selling local delicacies such as mugwort mochi, miso dango skewers, and charcoal-grilled rice crackers. Oshino Hakkai is generally arranged together with Lake Kawaguchi or Gotemba. If you are driving, the time is more controllable, but if you are taking the bus, be sure to check the return schedule in advance.

Oshino Hakkai is a small village in Yamanashi Prefecture that has become a scenic spot. As the name suggests, there are eight ponds and Mt.

Have you heard of Oshino Hakkai? Although it is close to the city center, it is a spectacular spot where you can enjoy the picturesque natural scenery right in front of Japan's symbol, Mt. Fuji. Oshino Hakkai is the collective name for eight highly transparent spring-fed ponds where meltwater from Mt. Fuji rises. The sparkling blue water reflects Mt. Fuji beautifully, creating a beautiful and mysterious scene. Many people visit from all over Japan and abroad to see this view. Oshino Hakkai is designated as a national natural monument and has been selected as one of Japan's 100 famous waters. Anyone can drink the water for free, and you can even bottle it and take it home! The eight ponds that make up Oshino Hakkai ○Wakuike ○Shobuike ○Kagamiike ○Nigoriike ○Sokonashiike ○Choshiike ○Okamaike ○Deguchiike Among them, the most recommended are ○Wakuike It boasts the largest amount of spring water among the eight ponds, and is also deep. Therefore, you can enjoy the deep blue color of the pond, and the contrast with the colorful carp swimming in it is very beautiful. ○Kagamiike In contrast to Wakuike, this pond has a small amount of spring water and the water surface is always calm. Therefore, Mt. Fuji is beautifully reflected on the water surface like a mirror, and you can see Mt. Fuji upside down along with Mt. Fuji. In the autumn foliage season, you can view the foliage and enjoy the picturesque scenery. However, all eight ponds are scattered quite close to each other, so we recommend visiting all of them and enjoying the differences! Also, there are many food stalls and other shops near Oshino Hakkai that are perfect for eating while walking around. The charcoal-grilled dumplings are a perfect match for the scenery of good old Japan, and the savory aroma of the charcoal and the sweet, chewy dumplings are exquisite. Be sure to take a stroll while drinking spring water and eating some dumplings. What do you think? Oshino Hakkai has wonderful scenery that cannot be conveyed in photos alone, so if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city and be soothed by nature, be sure to visit. #YamanashiTourism #YamanashiTrip #YamanashiGourmet #OshinoHakkai #Mt.Fuji #FreeHongKongAirTicket

I went to Oshino Hakkai! You can enjoy the crystal clear water, the buildings that let you enjoy the traditional Japanese scenery, and if the weather is good, you can also see Mt. Fuji. The largest pond costs 300 yen to enter, but I think it's definitely worth going. I went once in June and once in January, and it's beautiful no matter how many times I go! There was a well-stocked shop, and even a corner where you could bottle the spring water! It was really delicious. As expected from Mt. Fuji! There was also a wide selection of souvenirs, so it was fun to choose. Please go on a day off. ^^ #Oshino Hakkai #Yamanashi Prefecture #Mt. Fuji

Shobuike Pond, the eighth sacred site of the Oshino Hakkai. It's only a 2-3 minute walk from the busiest area, so many people stop by to see it. Large carp swim gracefully in the spacious pond. It's a place where you can take a break from the crowds, with a traditional thatched-roof restroom and a rest area. If you walk along the pond and look back from the rest area, you can see the majestic Mt. Fuji.

Oshino Hakkai is a tourist spot that is always crowded with people. ... but Deguchi Pond, the first sacred place of Oshino Hakkai, is a hidden spot that is almost deserted due to its difficulty in getting there. There is no designated parking lot, so I thought about whether I should walk from another place or if it was really okay, but I parked in a vacant lot near the pond and dashed off to see the sights. To get to Deguchi Pond, you can rely on signs that appear occasionally on the road. You can enjoy the silence that you wouldn't expect from a famous tourist spot, so please give it a try.

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 #Yamanashi trip #Yamanashi sightseeing #Yamanashi gourmet #Oshino village #Oshino Hakkai #Oshino Hakkai tour #Lake Yamanaka #Mysterious #Mysterious place #Natural monument #Mt.

It's very popular with foreigners, and when I went there, it was amazing to see so many tourists from overseas! I went to Oshino Hakkai. The water is so beautiful! ️ I was surprised at how beautiful and clear the water was. I see. I want everyone to go and see it. I understand why there are so many tourists from overseas lol There are so many ponds and it was fun to look around them, but the food at the stalls along the way was also delicious and I was happy. If it's difficult to get there or you don't have a car, I think a bus tour is a good option! I participated in the bus tour 🚌 You don't have to drive and you can get there while sleeping or talking, so it was easy. #Oshino Hakkai #Breathtakingly Beautiful Spot

There are several parking lots near the narrow roads at Oshino Hakkai. While many of the parking lots require a fee, the parking lot at Ikemoto Shop is free for those who purchase something at the shop! It is also close to the spring water viewing spot. It is recommended not only for leisurely strolling around, but also for those who want to take a quick look and then head home. In addition to souvenirs unique to Yamanashi Prefecture, we also recommend rare domestic honey and delicious freshly fried kamaboko. The second sign marks the entrance to the parking lot.

When you come to admire Mount Fuji, you must visit Oshino Hakkai. Oshino Hakkai is a scenic spot on Mount Fuji that features eight clear ponds. At first I thought it was like a big park, but when I got here, I found that it was a beautiful place that combines a picturesque big park with a place for tourists to walk leisurely, eat and shop. Oshino Hakkai is a popular scenic spot located between Lake Kawaguchi and Lake Yamanaka on the southeast side of the island. The name comes from the eight ponds formed by the melted snow of Mount Fuji gushing out in Oshino Village. Because the snow water flows underground and is naturally filtered for decades before gushing out, it is extremely clear. Combined with the beautiful view of Mount Fuji from a distance, Oshino Hakkai has become a well-known tourist destination in the Fuji Five Lakes area. We went for a walk on a weekend morning at the end of January. It just happened to be the first snowfall, and everywhere was truly breathtakingly beautiful. It was beautiful even when taking photos. The lake water is indeed very clear, so clear that you can see the bottom. Then we ate some snacks while walking, such as meatballs, grilled corn, grilled grass cakes, ice cream of different flavors, etc. The children were not hungry, so they did not go into the restaurant, but they saw udon, which seemed delicious. Also, check out the souvenir shop for local specialties such as Yamanashi honey, and there are also bags of local village udon available for purchase. You can enjoy the beautiful scenery of lakes and mountains, taste delicious food and enjoy shopping. If I have the chance, I really want to come again in another season! #Oshinohakka #Oshinofuji #Oshinomura #Fujisanji #Tokyofreetravel #Tokyogoodplaces #Tokyoparents
