#Sign up for hotel test sleeper Purchase a two-day Odakyu Hakone Freepass, take the first Romance Train to Hakone Yumoto Station, go to Platform 2 to take the H/R Line, and then walk for a few dozen minutes to reach the must-see water torii. Because we set off earlier than the official recommended itinerary, time was very useful. In addition, we took the opposite route than the one recommended on the Internet and made this our first stop, so we were able to get in line for photo opportunities quickly. Then take a boat and cable car. After visiting the main attractions at around 3pm, you can also take a bus to Gotemba outlet shopping! Address Shinjuku-Hakone Features - Shrine, crater, black jade, black ice cream, cable car Price per person - less than 10,000 yen Rating - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #Japan #Torii #Hakone #Water Torii #Free Travel #Mount Fuji

Although it is a little far from the center of Hakone, we would like to introduce two shrines on Lake Ashi that are worth visiting⛩ The "Torii of Peace" at Hakone Shrine is also famous for the photo taken while riding on a swan boat on the lake🤳 Kuzuryu Shrine is a power spot that is said to bring good luck in business, protection of financial luck, matchmaking, and the fulfillment of wishes🐉 After touring the shrine, why not take a break and eat five-colored mochi at "Gongen Karamemochi" on the premises? You can enjoy freshly made, chewy mochi in a set of red bean paste, kinako, sesame, seaweed, and grated daikon radish🤤 We recommend wearing comfortable shoes👟 #Domestic travel #Hakone Shrine #Hakone sightseeing #Shrine tour

It was a rainy day when I went, very heavy rain. I read on the internet that others said that on a sunny day taking a pirate ship to the Torii, there is a chance you can see a little Mount Fuji! When it rains, pilgrimage to the torii also has a different flavor! It is a trace of the vicissitudes of life. Every journey cannot expect every day to be sunny,but you can expect every day to feel different when it arrives.

Hakone Shrine is a famous shrine that has been revered as Hakone Daigongen, the guardian deity of the Kanto region since ancient times, and is worshipped as a god of good fortune, with divine virtues for bringing good luck, warding off evil, fulfilling wishes, traffic safety, and finding a partner. You can take a sightseeing boat from Hakone Shrine and get a great view of Mt. Fuji. It was a little cloudy that day, but it was great to see the beautiful view. #Mt.Fuji #CoupleTrip 80-1 Motohakone, Hakone-machi, Ashigarashimo-gun, Kanagawa Prefecture, 250-0522 Telephone: 0460-83-7123 Fax: 0460-83-6669 =Reception hours at each location (normal times)= Reception hours for the amulet and sacred seal: 8:15 to 17:00 Reception hours for prayers: 8:30 to 16:00 Reception hours for viewing the treasure hall: 9:00 to 16:00

#Tokyo itinerary Hakone, a popular hotspot near Tokyo! You can enjoy the "up to the mountains and down to the sea" trip in one day Feel the stunning beauty of nature😍 First stop recommendation: Take a pirate ship to visit Lake Ashi🛳️ On the way, you can see the super fantastic ⛩️ Hakone Shrine "Sea Torii". After that, you can transfer to the Peak Cable Car directly to the Otsuka Valley. The scenery along the way is super spectacular. Once we arrived at the Okawa Valley, the mountains were filled with smoke, and it was as shocking as entering the world of volcanoes🌫️ You can take a sightseeing boat + cable car + mountaineering tram 🚠 in one day Playing from the lake to the top of the mountain and back from the volcanic smoke to the tranquil lake views was fun and fulfilling. When the weather is nice, you can still have a chance to see Mount Fuji🗻! Perfect for couples, friends or family outings, beautiful scenery and convenient transportation, well worth a visit!

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 The most famous thing about Hakone Shrine is the torii gate on Lake Ashi⛩️ Follow the small signs for Hakone Shrine along the road You will see the big red torii at the entrance of Hakone Shrine After walking for about 10 minutes, you can see Hakone Shrine. Go down the long stairs and you will see the legendary water torii⛩️! The scene is really huge and spectacular~ But you need to queue up to take pictures with the Torii📷 ‼ ️If you don’t want to waste time queuing, it is recommended to go early in the morning when there are fewer people. Address: 80-1 Motohakone, Hakone-cho, Ashigarashita-gun, Kanagawa Prefecture Transportation: Take the Hakone Tozan Bus and get off at "Hakone Shrine" 🚌 / Self-driving tour

The Shinto gate, which marks sacred territory for the Japanese, is the main symbol of Hakone. The bright red torii competes in fame with the famous Itsukushima gate. Both structures are installed in the water, but the gate in Hakone is much smaller in size and easier to get to. The best view, of course, is in sunny weather. Snow-white Mount Fuji, the dark blue surface of Lake Ashi, the sky, the forest and the fiery torii - all this makes the landscape unforgettable. The temple gate is called Heiwa no Torii. Translated from Japanese, heiwa means "peace". The Peace Gate was erected on the occasion of two events. The first was the entry into force of the San Francisco Peace Treaty in 1952, signed a year earlier by Shigeru Yoshida. The second was the official inauguration of the current Emperor Akihito as the Crown Prince. #hakone #Toripeace During bad weather, the tidal wave floods the stone path leading to the gate. Be careful, watch your step, it is slippery.

It is very pleasant here. You can see the endless mountains in the distance. If your accommodation is nearby, there will be a bus about once an hour. If you want to go to other attractions, you may have to check the bus time in advance, otherwise you will have to wait a long time to get on. I came here by bus this time, but next time I will choose to drive there as it will be more relaxed. Besides, the B&B where I stay has parking space which is actually quite convenient. The car can just drive down to the Hakone Shrine. The shrine is very big and the trees here are really tall. You can see the red torii from a distance. It is actually very beautiful from this perspective. And you must take pictures at the Torii gate on the sea. This time I waited in line for an hour. If you want to take pictures, you can go when there is plenty of time, otherwise you will have to wait for a long time. It may also be because it was opened this time because it was closed before, so there were so many people.

#GlobalTravel The Peace Torii on Lake Ashi is a must-visit place for visitors to Hakone Harbor📸Built in 1952, the red Torii stands on the lake, with the reflection of the lake, you can take beautiful photos everywhere~ But there were too many people queuing up to take pictures, so we chose to take pictures next to it🥹If you want to queue up, you need to prepare at least 1 hour Reminder: Many travel information recommends taking a pirate ship, but I personally don’t recommend it, because the boat ride takes 1 hour and the scenery along the way is mediocre. It is recommended to take a bus directly to the shrine. It is more cost-effective 🙂↕️ When you come here, don’t forget to visit the nearby Hakone Shrine. The environment is quiet and comfortable🤍 📍Peace Torii 〒250-0522 80-1 Motohakone, Hakone-machi, Ashigarashimo-gun, Kanagawa Prefecture

#GlobalTravel The most popular attraction in Hakone: Hakone Shrine Underwater Torii⛩️ There are many guides online saying that you should come early in the morning so you don’t have to spend so much time taking photos. If you will stay in Hakone for two days, you might want to consider this. My plan is a one-day tour, following the following itinerary: Owakudani➡️Pirate sightseeing boat tour of Lake Ashi➡️Hakone Shrine After taking a pirate sightseeing boat tour, you can get off at Moto-Hakone Port and walk to Hakosou Shrine. The most famous one is the underwater torii, but as expected, around 5 o’clock, there were crowds of people queuing up to take photos. Basically, we waited in line for at least half an hour until it was dark 🙂↔️🙂↔️⛩️ Transportation: If you depart from Shinjuku, it is recommended to purchase the Hakone Freepass, which comes in 2-day and 3-day passes. In addition to the round-trip train ticket from Shinjuku to Hakone, the pass also includes most of the transportation in Hakone (aerial cable car, mountain cable car, pirate sightseeing ship, mountain bus), allowing you to experience Hakone in different ways. All the itineraries introduced above can be enjoyed by showing the tour pass🎟️🙂↕️

#November Good Places 2024 #usj When crossing Lake Tsuru on a pirate ship in Hakone you will see a very special torii built in the water on the shore in the distance. I was quite curious at the time, so I got off the boat and headed in the direction in question to find out. After 15 minutes from the Motohakone Port disembarkation point, you will see the entrance to Hakone Shrine. There is a path to enter near the lake on the left side of the entrance. Go straight along the path and you will reach the torii gate in the water. There were a lot of people queuing up for photos when I arrived, and I felt satisfied after taking a few pictures of the aquatic torii next to it. #Tokyo Attractions #Hakone #Heiwa Torii

There are many foreign tourists in front of the Torii of Peace, and long lines form to take photos. So, how about taking a swan boat on Lake Ashi to see the torii from above the lake?

#fallishere The Heiwa No Tori Gates in Hakone Japan is just so pretty and beautiful. This is huge tori gate that looks like it's hanging over you when you're taking pictures under it and it stands so majestically at the bay area. Do note that there's a long queue of people waiting for their turns to snap a picture at this famous attraction. Wear thicker too, as it can get pretty windy and cold as the sea breeze blows by. Otherwise, it's such a pretty sight at Heiwa No Tori!

#日本景点 #哈根神社 #日本龟阁 Of course you have to go to Hakone Shrine when you go to Hakone! This shrine is the symbol of Hakone, and of course you have to walk up a lot of stairs to get in! In fact, many shrines in Japan are like this, because it shows that the people who go there have a "divine heart". When we went there, in addition to appreciating the tranquility inside, we also had to visit the most famous Torii! This torii gate is great for taking photos, and it’s also a check-in spot for many people! It is quite an experience to look at the lake view and take photos at the same time.

Currently my favorite set of Goldwin hiking travel notes: Hakone, located in Kanagawa Prefecture 90 kilometers from Tokyo, is known as the hot spring town and resort of Japan due to its lush mountains and flowing streams, and is also known as a "national park". The red building is the Goldwin x Hakone Shrine Torii facing Mount Fuji, featured in the joint collaboration with the well-known Japanese outdoor media "PAPERSKY". Explore the nature and history of Hakone along the "Hakone Hachiri" trail that still retains the atmosphere of the Edo period.

Hakone is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Japan. No matter how many days you spend there, it's a relaxing spot that I can't write about. The area around Lake Ashi is especially pleasant all year round. Maybe it's because it's home to the ultimate power spot, Hakone Shrine. #Hakone #HakoneShrine #PowerSpot
