[2025 Fujiyoshida Attraction] Travel Guide for Kanadorii (Updated Apr)

It is said that Mount Fuji rewards early risers. Compared to Lake Kawaguchiko, I prefer Lake Yamanaka. Although there was no "reverse Fuji," I was already very satisfied. There was sunrise, swans, and Mount Fuji. 🚗6:30 Hirano Lakeside (Hirano no Hama) Took a taxi to Hirano no Hama. There were swans, sunrise, and Mount Fuji. 🚴10:00 Shiratori-hama After 7:00, there's a bus. Took the bus back to the hotel and rented a bicycle with electric assist. It wasn't tiring. Cycling around the lake took 2 hours. Gave up on "the park" as it opens at 11:00 and there were already many people waiting for viewing spots at 10:00. But actually, just a little bit past "the park," the scenery was also amazing. There's no need to wait specifically. After cycling around the lake, had brunch at Denny's. In the afternoon, took a bus to Lake Kawaguchiko. A perfect day. ❗️Tips The lake bus only starts running at 7:00. To see the sunrise early, you need to take a taxi or stay near Hirano. There are swans in many places, especially at Shiratori-hama, and also at Hirano. Bicycle rentals are available from 9:00 for JPY 2,000 for two hours. Rented from an elderly gentleman near Shiratori-hama. Two hours is enough to cycle around the lake and take photos. You can choose a hotel in Hirano or near a bus stop, which is very convenient.

#MarchDestinations2025 #Japan #Kawaguchiko Depart from Yokohama early in the morning, book a bus in advance from the west exit of Yokohama Station to Kawaguchiko, the journey takes about two hours. After getting off at Kawaguchiko Station, take the red line sightseeing bus to the ninth cable car station to take the cable car to Tenjoyama Park, and buy a cable car and cruise ship package. After going down the mountain, take the Tensei cruise ship, which takes about 20 minutes to cruise around the lake, and you can see Mount Fuji all the way! After the event, we went to the Apple Pie Lab across the street to have a break and eat an apple pie and a cup of coffee. There is also a famous Fuji biscuit shop under the cable car station, which sells biscuits in the shape of Mount Fuji. It was past 11 o'clock that day and the single-packaged biscuits were gone, but there was still a box of five biscuits, which cost about NT$50 per biscuit. Next, continue to take the red line tour bus to the last stop, Oishi Park Station. This is also a very beautiful park where you can see Mount Fuji, and admission is free. There are also many shops in the park selling snacks. There are different flowers in different seasons, but there are no flowers if you go there in mid-March. However, it is still quite beautiful! ! I originally wanted to go to the Kawaguchiko Music Museum next, but I gave up as it seemed like I would run out of time so I took the bus back to Kawaguchiko Station and took the Fujikyuko Line train to Shimoyoshida Station and headed to Arakura Fuji Sengen Shrine. It took about 20 minutes to walk from getting off the train to Arakura Fuji Sengen Shrine, and I had to climb a lot of stairs which was really tiring! ! But once you step onto the Zhanwangtai, you’ll feel that everything is worth it! ! Next, we went to the popular check-in spot, Fuji Yoshida Nostalgic Shopping Street, where there were really a lot of people! ! You have to pay attention to traffic safety, otherwise it is really dangerous to take pictures at the intersection. You can also walk a little further and there will be many intersections where you can take pictures. I walked all the way to Fujisan Station. I could see Mount Fuji along the way, and finally I walked to the Golden Torii, which took about 20 minutes. You can also take pictures of the beauty of Mount Fuji at the Golden Torii, and there are fewer people here. Finally, I took the bus back to Kawaguchiko Station, ate a bowl of ほうとう (㦎饦), and there was still some time, so I went to Fuji Cafe CUP'S for afternoon tea and waited for the bus back to Yokohama.

We took a bus from Nam Sai Village to Fujiyoshida City, getting off at Kanadoriikoen-mae bus stop and walking for about 1.2 kms to 🌄Shimoyoshida Honcho Street (Fuji Scenic View), a popular corner with a road leading straight to Mt. Fuji. Nearby, there is Kanadorii Gate for Mt.Fuji, a large torii gate that is another symbol of Japan. This gate was built in 1956 and is used as a symbol to welcome groups of travelers who will come to conquer Mt. Fuji. 📍Location: Near Hostel Saruya or opposite a coffee shop called FabCafe Fuji 🚆 For those who take the train from Kawaguchiko station, get off at Shimoyoshida station and walk for about 550 m. #WinterTravel #Travel #Japan

Fujiyoshida City-Golden Torii⛩️ The Golden Torii, which has a history of more than 200 years, is the symbol of Fujiyoshida. Many tourists come here to see the 9.7-meter-high giant Torii, Mount Fuji, and the shopping street behind it. The Golden Torii is not golden in color. In ancient times, it was called the "Tang Bronze Torii". Tang copper is a metal made using a process introduced from the Tang Dynasty in China, also known as bronze. Because of the similar pronunciation in Japanese, "Tang Bronze Torii" later became "Golden Torii". #金鸟居 #fuji #kanadori #Fuji #Fujiyoshida #Yamanashi #check-in #Weekends in Yamanashi #フジサンノフモト
