Exploring Fujiyoshida? Here’s a mini guide to two of its most underrated gems: Shimoyoshida Honcho Street and the Fujiyoshida Retro Shopping Street — with epic Mount Fuji views the whole time! 🗻✨ Top Spots to Visit: 1. Shimoyoshida Honcho Street Address: 3 Chome-5 Shimoyoshida, Fujiyoshida, Yamanashi 403-0004 This laid-back street is all about old-school Showa-era vibes and local spots. You’ll want your camera ready: on clear days, the street frames Mount Fuji perfectly at the end. Early mornings or late afternoons are best for fewer crowds and gorgeous light for photos — trust me, it’s Insta-gold! 2. Fujiyoshida Retro Shopping Street Address: 3 Chome-14 Shimoyoshida, Fujiyoshida, Yamanashi 403-0004 Open all day, year-round Step back in time with quirky storefronts, retro signs, and family-run shops. Grab a snack from a street vendor (yakisoba is a local fave!) and hunt for cute souvenirs. It’s a relaxed spot to wander and soak up the retro energy and, again, those unbeatable Fuji views. Local Tips: - For the clearest views of Mount Fuji, check the weather and aim for a clear morning — it’s seriously magical. - Both streets are walkable from Shimoyoshida Station, so no car required! 🚶 - Many shops are cash-only, so bring yen! Getting Around: Trains are your friend — Shimoyoshida Station is the easiest access point. The streets are close by, so you can stroll, snack, and snap amazing Fuji shots all day.
