Did you know? What is Oshino Hakkai, a breathtaking landscape with a mysterious atmosphere?

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
