| Don't miss this place when visiting Mt. Fuji, great experience · Accommodation included. Accommodation in Lake Yamanaka is relatively cheaper than Kawaguchiko and Tokyo city, although transportation is not very convenient, it is very quiet and suitable for slow-paced vacation travel. It is said that seeing the true face of Mt. Fuji requires luck, so it is highly recommended to stay overnight in Lake Yamanaka, as the probability of not seeing Mt.

Fuji - Hirano Beach The morning Mt. Fuji blooms with its stunning beauty on the shores of Lake Yamanaka. At around 4:00 am, get up and open the window. As the first ray of sunlight falls on the lake, the whole world seems to quiet down. The top of Mt. Fuji is illuminated by the morning light, dyed a light pink, dreamy and playful. However, this beautiful picture is fleeting. Soon, Mt. Fuji returns to its bright white color. When you go out, the sky is overcast. By the lake, you wait for the sun to continue rising, but it never does. Perhaps that moment is a gift and surprise from heaven. Hirano Beach is one of the best places to photograph the classic "inverted Mt. Fuji". When taking pictures of reflections and swans by the lake, I met a Japanese grandfather who was feeding the swans. He gave me a handful of food and said goodbye in Chinese before leaving, "It's nice to meet you, thank you, goodbye." I sincerely recommend to all who plan to visit Mt. Fuji, please add Lake Yamanaka to your travel list❗️ ✨『Some Tips』 ◑Two good times to photograph Mt.
