I've only been to the parks in the US, but the people stating this is the BEST Disney park in the entire world, are not wrong. If you're a ride junky, short line person, or staunch american food eater, this might not be for you. However, I'd still recommend doing it One time in your life. the Japanese have created a massive sea side extravaganza. Never have I seen so many lands, and everything is so extravagant and big. From the Prometheus Volcano, hidden island, Arabia castles, Indiana Jones pyramid, Tower of Terror, Marine institute, Columbia ship, all these things are huge decorative items that dwarf the impact of the impact of the favored California Disneyland Castle. This place is magnfiicant on the eyes. ALSO, park prices are well less than HALF of American park prices. Worth the plane fair alone.

We visited here in Winter and the ice and snow made it more spectacular. We also took the short circular track to Kotaki Falls which was absolutely beautiful and easy to negotiate with just hiking boots and poles. Unfortunately, we couldn’t do the Sejogahara Moor trail from here because it was closed due to damage to the track further along.

If you're looking for a great hike in Tokyo, this is great place. You can stay in the local inns- which they are on the older side but I feel like it kept the nostalgia, hubby and I liked it. The hike itself is pretty steep going down to the waterfall but worth it. Proper shoewear is must. Check with the locals/online reviews because one road was closed due to mother nature. This can change the entire trip. Tokyo- winter: wicked cold. Summer: wicked hot. bring appropriate clothing.

We had no idea how jaw dropping this place was! You are able to talk through a part of a stone mine. It makes you feel you are on another planet or something. Don’t forget to take a sweater or light jacket because it’s chilly all year around. I didn’t see any handicap accommodations and you will have to climb down and up many steps-just like when you visit a good size caves or caverns. Very limited information in English, which didn’t make much sense. But you can get what they’re trying to tell you. There is a small information area but again all in Japanese. My non-Japanese speaking teens were able to get main information by reading English signs posted here and there. They were very amused by huge tour buses driving through small areas between carved boulders in the mountain.

Mount Nokogiri used to be a quarry, and on top of the hill there’s a centuries-old Buddhist retreat. If you are lucky to come on a fine day you can enjoy sweeping views of Tokyo Bay and even Mount Fuji in the vista.

Lines are a lot shorter when paid for individually, rather than the US standard of paying park admission. We experienced Vanish! (the pink coaster that dives into a tunnel in the water), the beautiful ferris wheel (which offers some fantastic views of Yokohama Bay), a 3-D laser shooting ride, and the log ride. Enjoyed it immensely.

Hanayashiki, Japan’s first and oldest amusement park has been around since 1853. It originally began as a flower park, until its management started added in more attractions to transform it into an amusement park.

Before Disney, there was Hanayashiki. A small, vintage amusement park with a few retro rides, some snack stalls and a charmingly simple atmosphere. Pre-teens would be bored but toddlers will love this place.

We took a train to get there and spent around ten minutes from Kinugawa Park station. Because a typhoon will land tomorrow, just a few tourists visited this scenery. Amazing waterfall and valley were attractive to our sight. We got around everywhere for about ninety minutes. Though many maple leaves haven’t changed color, I deeply recommend the Ryuokyo Canyon in Kinugawa.

I was fortunate to be able to take the Hakone Ropeway up to the transfer station at Owaku-dani and get off to experience this volcanic valley which is a volcanic crater. created during the last eruption of Mount Hakone some 3,000 years ago. This is an active volcanic zone where sulfurous fumes, hot springs and hot rivers can be experienced. Owaku-dani had a great view of Mount Fuji as it was clear on the day I visited; however, I understand that this may have been one of the better days as it was clear when I got there and began to cloud up a little later in the day. A short walking trail from the Ropeway Station leads to the volcanic zone where there are numerous of steam vents and bubbling pools. The smell of sulfur may be quite strong and there are alarms when the levels are high. The area may be closed if there is judged to be dangerous levels of gas or if volcanic activity is judged to be imminent. If open, worth a visit as this is an unusual place and a great geologic wonder. There is a geologic museum and places to eat there also. You can also purchase boiled eggs, cooked in the naturally hot water, whose shells are blackened by the sulfur; it is said to prolong one's life by seven years.
