Mt Fuji covered with Sakura

Mt Fuji is widely known as the shy mountain, but it wasn't my worry at all. Instead, we have been worried about the explosion that everybody has been talking about. It might be the last time we could visit Toyko in the next decade. We were, however, lucky enough to see Mt Fuji from a spectacular angle. When we arrived, we barely saw it and then it was covered by sandstorm, unfortunately. Just before sunset, we checked out at our hotel, and then Mt Fuji decided to show up! With cherry started to blossom, it made the best moment of our entire trip! Mt Fuji with Sakura - nothing can beat this combination. This is now off my bucket list! #tokyo #mountainfuji #sakura #cherryblossoms #japan

Lake Kawaguchi

Lake Kawaguchi (河口湖 Kawaguchi-ko) is one of the “Fuji Five Lakes” located in Fujikawaguchiko City, Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan, north of Mount Fuji. History • Lake Kawaguchiko was formed by the ancient eruption of Mount Fuji, which caused lava to flow down and form a lake-like landscape. • It was originally connected to Lake Saiko, but later lava blocked it, causing it to separate and become an independent lake. • It is approximately 800 meters above sea level. It is the lake with the longest shoreline among the Fuji Five Lakes, and has the most facilities, such as hotels, ryokans, restaurants, museums, and hot springs. • In the past, Kawaguchiko was an important route for pilgrims to Mount Fuji, with pilgrims staying in villages around the lake before making their way to the summit. Highlights • It is one of the most beautiful spots to view Mount Fuji, especially when the weather is clear. Or when the “shadow of Fuji” is reflected on the water • Nearby tourist attractions include the Kawaguchiko Panoramic Ropeway, Kawaguchiko Music Museum, Herb Museum, and Oishi Park 2. Seeing cherry blossoms around Lake Kawaguchiko Lake Kawaguchiko is considered one of the most popular cherry blossom viewing spots in Japan because you will see the image of “cherry blossoms in full bloom + clear lake + Mt. Fuji in the background”, which is so beautiful that it looks like a painting. Cherry blossom season • Usually, cherry blossoms start to bloom around Lake Kawaguchiko around early to mid-April of each year (for example, April 5-15 will be in full bloom). • However, the blooming period may move earlier or later depending on the weather each year. Recommended cherry blossom viewing spots around the lake • The northern shore of the lake (Kawaguchiko North Shore) called Ubuyagasaki Point and Nagasaki Park — are the most highlighted spots. See the clear view of Fuji and Sakura • Fujiyoshida, the red pagoda, beautiful and bright • Walk along the lake near Kawaguchiko Ohashi Bridge Around the bridge, there are cherry trees along the way, with a view of the bridge and Mt. Fuji • Kawaguchiko Sakura Festival Organized around early to mid-April, there are local shops, food, and nighttime lighting (Light Up) 3.
