Art blends with nature at this huge outdoor sculpture park, where works by both Japanese and Western artists are framed by trees, grass and mountains.

For many people, the attraction here will largely lie in the exceptionally beautiful gardens. Part of them consist of a shady moss-covered area and part of a more formal display of Japanese shrubs and trees. The whole thing amounts to what I think is the best small garden I have ever visited in Japan. We were there on an overcast day in late May, but I would imagine it would be gorgeous whatever time you visit - autumn especially of course. The museum itself provides a relatively small exhibition of Japanese artefacts that will likely only turn on an expert or aficionado of historically important porcelain and ceramics. For the layman, not much of stunning beauty or interest. Free parking is available across the street, and you can get a discounted joint ticket for the museum/grounds plus Gora Park nearby (also worth a visit)

The building itself is worth a visit. This is not meant to detract from the interesting, worthwhile exposition of modern art. You can actually walk to it from Gora train station. Don’t miss

After being refused from another onsen because in a group of 5 I was the one with tattoos (although very small), and not being allowed in even if covered them up, Tenzan accepted us and were nothing but friendly and kind. So nice and relaxing, despite having (unknowingly) made the mistake of starting with the last "pool" - the hottest. It was an incredible experience to quietly sit outside, in the rain, surrounded by bamboo and with your body submerged in warm water. Beware low blood pressure people! It will make it even lower so be very careful - you will feel dizzy/lightheaded in there and after. A little reading break in the nap/resting room is mandatory, where you can quietly enjoy the sound of the river running through a very small waterfall just outside two massive windows. Very beautiful views. A must-do for those who enjoy doing nothing! Afterwards we tried the food at the restaurant which was equally nice (see photos). First photo was in the morning, last photo was the time we left. That's how good of a time we spent there. Highly recommend!
8. Okada Museum of Art
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 261 reviews
The Okada Museum of Art opened in Hakone, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan in 2013. Okada Museum of Art displays approximately 450 artworks. Japan’s leading artists including Katsushika Hokusai, Kitagawa Utamaro, Tawaraya Sotatsu, and Ito Jakuchu,all have their artwork on display here so this museum is definitely a must-see. In front of the mural “Wind/Time” depicting the Wind God and Thunder God are footbaths with constantly flowing 100% natural hot spring water (No hydrolysis-warming). This alkaline hot spring water is perfect for relaxing after enjoying the Museum. A restaurant is also located on the grounds, making this an art museum you can enjoy your entire day in.

The collection at this private museum outside of Hakone is a marvel. Each successive room filled with beautiful screens, exquisite pottery and vases, sculpture, bowls and textiles is unsurpassed. We could have spent more time there because of the many well curated treasures here.
9. Lake Ashinoko

Created 3,000 years ago by a volcanic eruption, this lake is cruised by boats year round and, from its southern edge, offers the view of Mt. Fuji often seen in tourist brochures.

If you are blessed with beautiful weather, your cruise on Lake Ashi will be amazing. We were fortunate enough to take a short cruise on a cloudless, blue-sky day, and thoroughly enjoyed the serene surroundings. Mount Fuji was not very clearly in view during our cruise, but we could see her silhouette.
10. Hakone Tozan Railway

Railroad buffs in particular will enjoy a ride on this small train, which includes two stretches, the more scenic of which is Hakone Yumoto to Gora.
Reviewed By rangaface - Adelaide, Australia
We chose the cable car on the way home as we caught the bus up the hill on the way in and didn’t get to experience the amazing greenery of sights up and down the mountain like you can on the cable car. It may add an extra half an hour to your trip down the mountain - but well worth it.
