[2025 Minamitsuru District ] Travel Guide for Kawaguchiko Station Concierge Desk (Updated May)

#tokyo Window shopping was the perfect thing to do when the weather was rainy and gloomy all day long in Kawaguchiko. Head on to Fujisan Station Shopping Centre which is one stop away from Kawaguchiko Station. Store your luggage, if any inside the locker storage at the train station. Go window shopping for cute limited version of Mount Fuji souvenirs like paper weights, kit kat chocolates, peter rabbit tea products and so on. And then indulge yourself in three layer soft cone ice cream (mount fuji version of blue and vanilla swirl) and do try the hot taiyaki pancake (japanese snack) with chocolate or red bean fillings. They are delicious ! #awesomepic #tripblazers #mytripvlog

Don't overlook the classic angle, Kawaguchiko station photo spot The first place to go to see Fuji that everyone must arrive at is Kawaguchiko Station. After that, many people will be busy looking for a bus stop to connect to their destination or busy looking for a train to other cities to see Fuji at their destination. But try searching for a view of Fuji. One of the places that tourists around the world like to take pictures of Fuji is Kawaguchiko Station. The angle that everyone must visit when they first arrive at Fuji. Try to leave a little time to walk around. There are beautiful angles!! Take pictures and accidentally walk around the station and you will get classic photos. In the station, there are also souvenir shops, both snacks and souvenirs. If you are hungry while changing trains, there is food to sit and eat while waiting. Around the station, there are beautiful souvenir shops to buy souvenirs. However... check the weather forecast before coming. If the sky is clear, I can tell you that no matter how you take a picture, it will be beautiful. The view of Fuji is perfect if you take a picture with it in the frame. But... if the sky is overcast, the atmosphere changes completely. But don't be discouraged. Kawaguchiko is still a lovely city! #kawaguchiko #kawaguchikostation #withmyshutter #traveljapan #mountfuji #japan #photo #travel #newyearnewtrip

It is a lake located in Fujikawaguchiko-machi, Yamanashi Prefecture. It is one of the Fuji Five Lakes and part of the Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park. It has the longest shoreline and the lowest elevation among the Fuji Five Lakes. Lake Kawaguchi is famous for its beautiful scenery in all four seasons, and there are many ways to enjoy it all year round. In spring, cherry blossoms, phlox and Mount Fuji complement each other to create a gorgeous atmosphere, while in summer, fireworks displays and lakeside activities are very lively. It lasts until autumn when you can see stunning views of the autumn leaves, and winter when you can enjoy snowy scenery and warm hot springs. #2024TravelReview

Houtou is the soul food of Yamanashi Prefecture. There is even a saying in Yamanashi, 'It's as good as pumpkin houtou,' used when things go well, showing how beloved this local dish is. It's packed with nutrients and warms you up, making it especially delicious during the cold winter months. Houtou is a representative local dish of Yamanashi. It consists of flat noodles made from wheat flour, combined with ingredients like pumpkin, potatoes, mushrooms, seasonal vegetables, and meat, all simmered in a miso-based broth. It is said that in ancient times, the warlord Takeda Shingen used to eat it during his military campaigns. At home, it is often made in a large pot, but in restaurants, it is typically served in individual iron pots. The noodles are cooked with the flour still on them, which thickens the broth and allows it to cling to the noodles. The chewy texture of the noodles and the rich flavor of the broth make it an addictive dish once you try it.
