Perched on the northern slopes of Mount Arakura, this historic Shinto shrine offers a layered cultural experience and one of the most photographed views in Japan. Admission is free outside the Cherry Blossom Festival period.
Board a cruise on Lake Ashi, a caldera lake formed by a volcanic eruption approximately 3,000 years ago. On clear days, the reflection of Mount Fuji on the lake's surface creates an unforgettable visual.
Ride the Hakone Ropeway over the active volcanic zone of Owakudani, where sulfurous vents and steaming craters create a dramatic landscape. Sample the area's signature black eggs, hardboiled in the natural hot spring waters.
