FUJI TOUR

Mt. Fuji (5th station), Lake Kawaguchi, and Yamanashi

Arakurayama sengen park
Located halfway up Mount Arakura in Fujiyoshida City of Yamanashi Prefecture, this is a park from where you can see a panoramic view of the city with Mount Fuji in the back. It is known as a prominent sight-seeing spot for Mount Fuji, but it is also popular as a famous spot for cherry blossoms.

lake Kawaguchi (Kawaguchi-ko)
A lake Kawaguchi is the border of the towns of Fujikawaguchiko and Minobu in southern Yamanashi Prefecture near Mount Fuji, Japan. It is the second largest of the Fuji FiveLakes in terms of surface area, and is located at the lowest elevation. It is situated at located in an altitude of approximately 800 meters, which accounts for its
relatively cool summers and frequently icy winters. It also has the longest shoreline of any of the Fuji Five Lakes.

The Mount Fuji Panoramic Ropeway
The Mount Fuji Panoramic Ropeway ascends to an observation point near the summit of Mount Tenjo, from where Lake Kawaguchiko and Mount Fuji can be seen. The ropeway is one end point of the popular day hike to Mount Mitsutoge.

Akafuji Wine Cellar
If you are interested in trying Japanese wine, Akafuji Wine Cellar in Fujikawaguchiko is a good place to go. They have a wide range of both red and white locally produced Yamanashi wines. Japanese wine tends to be a bit sweet for many foreigners, and while most of the wines I tried were sweet, there were one or two that were on
the dry side. Before you leave, the friendly staff will probably serve you tea and raisins, and you can pose for photos with the statue at the entrance, and also with the stacked wine barrels.

Yamanashi Wine
Yamanashi Prefecture is said to be the cradle of Japanese wine. Since the end of 19th century, when two young
men from Katsunuma, Yamanashi Prefecture spread the winemaking they learned in France to their hometown, its production has grown so largely to the point where the 80 wineries in the prefecture now produce approximately 30% of the wine made in Japan.
