First of all it was really nice to travel during winter because the park is empty and the Q was fast (5-10 mins per ride), the extreme rides was marvelous and super fun! And at some high points on the coaster rides, I could see clearly the beautiful Mt Fuji, the snow at the park made my trip to Fuji Q highland park more memorable <3

Lake Kawaguchiko is one the the Mt Fuji 5 Lakes. It's very convenient to travel from Tokyo by train, highly suggested to get a Tokyo pass and reserve the seat. Also, it's highly recommended to rent a bike, the best way to travel around the Lake. There are many nice cafes and restaurant around the Lake area.

Nakagomi Orchard is fruit picking farm located in Minami Alps City, Yamanashi pref. You can enjoy various fruit pickings for every June - December period. Please feel free to visit us with your family, friends and colleagues!
I volunteered at Nakagomi Fruit Orchard for about 2 weeks in mid September and was right in the harvest season hence there were longer hours in the field mostly weedinge works. However, Kazu the host was always ensuring that we had enough food and drinks during work days and always bringing us lots of fresh fruits like grapes,peaches,pears and apples, you will never starve there. The peaches and the grapes were absolutely delicious, makes all the hard work worthwhile. Cycling down to work everyday from the dorm room was a nice way to start the morning, especially with the cool breeze but the cycle back after dinner/work can be tough as it is uphill all the way. Takes awhile to get used to it. It is a nice place to be in away from the city as the area is surrounded by mountain and on good days, you wouldn't get tired of seeing Mt.Fuji. There are some surrounding beautiful walks that you can do on off days and sometimes Kazu will offer to bring the volunteers to the local onsen which is awesome, especially after all the physical work in the field sometimes. I also enjoyed my time with the other volunteers there especially, brings alot of joy just talking and playing games together after work. Would love to return someday to either just fruit pick or volunteer during the cherry blossom seasons maybe, there is a stretch of road leading to a park very near the dorm that is lined with cherry blossom trees and i can only imagine how beautiful it will be when spring arrives. Thanks Kazu for hosting and of course to Yoko-san for taking care of our meals during workday. She cooks very delicious Japanese food !

This is rebuilt traditional Japanese style village on hill (destroyed from mud slide). Almost every home change to shops and restaurants. One home show history of this village during mud slide disaster. Two home have traditional Japanese warm table and art show. Mt Fuji view is very beautiful.

Fall, Winter, Autumn or Summer if you would like the best view of Mt. Fuji with the most romantic atmosphere then this is the best place to be - Chureito Pagoda. Located in Asakura Sengen Shrine site in Arakura Sengen Park. We went during Fall season just a few days ago and it was divine. A cool chilly weather around this area but sadly the clouds covered the top of Mt. Fuji. It was still indeed marvelous. We departed from Nippori station going to Otsuki using our JR Tokyo Wide Pass. From Otsuki we took the Fujikyuko line and alighted at Shimoyoshida Station. From the station exit right and follow the trail heading to Asakura Sengen Park. The walk is about 20 mins traversing beautiful countryside, gardens, streams, bridges and farms of Fuji Yoshida city. The park is free but you need to walk uphill so if you have kids or seniors with you please be prepared to take this trail or they can wait just at the entrance of the park. If the day is clear and not cloudy you would see Mt. Fuji behind you. As you enter the park there are many shrines and statues symbolizing your entry to this Holy place of Arakura Sengen Shrine (separate review). There are hundreds of cherry blossoms, maple trees and pine trees that surround the area. We went fall so the colors of Red, Yellow and Orange of the trees are in full bloom - very romantic, bright and happy colors which are perfect for photos and videos to cherish. Going uphill you could take stairs and uphill paved roads. We took the uphill road which is easier for kids and seniors. At the pagoda you have a good photo spot right in front of it and going further up there is the viewing spot where you could stare, marvel, relax and take beautiful photos and videos from the top of the beautiful Red Pagoda and if your lucky to see it - the majestic Mt. Fuji from the distance. This is a good spot for photographers due to its perfect location for your insta-worthy photo and videos. There is also a toilet available at the site. Going down we took the stairs which is easier than going up. Additional bonus in this park is the panoramic view of the Fuji Yoshida countryside and unlimited view of the Majestic Mt. Fuji. Despite not seeing the beautiful mountain we were delighted to be at this beautiful park and its Divine Red Chureito Pagoda.
