[2025 Fujikawaguchiko Shopping Mall] Travel Guide for Lawson (Fuji Kawaguchiko Town, Minamitsuru County) (Updated Feb)

#japantrip #thingstodo #mountfuji #conveniencestore #lawson #tokyo #travel #japan #daytrip Imagine grabbing a coffee or onigiri from a Lawson convenience store while gazing at the towering beauty of Mount Fuji—sounds unreal, right? But in Fujiyoshida, there’s a Lawson that has become an attraction in itself thanks to its unbeatable backdrop of Japan’s most iconic mountain. When I visited, I was amazed at how perfectly Fuji loomed over the store, making even a simple snack break feel special. It’s a fantastic photo spot, especially in the early morning when the sky is clear. Easily accessible by bus or train from Kawaguchiko Station, this Lawson isn’t just a convenience store—it’s an experience!

In the heart of my Japanese road trip, I pulled over to a Lawson convenience store, not expecting much beyond a quick snack or drink. But as I stepped out, there it was—Mt. Fuji, standing majestically in the background, framed perfectly by the store’s glass doors. The contrast between the familiar, modern convenience of Lawson and the timeless beauty of Japan’s most iconic mountain felt almost surreal. As I sipped my drink and grabbed a quick bite, I couldn’t help but pause and appreciate the moment. It was a snapshot of everyday life juxtaposed with nature’s grandeur—reminding me how Japan blends the ordinary and extraordinary. The scene felt like a perfect metaphor for travel: sometimes, the most surprising moments come when you least expect them, even in the most mundane places. #magicalxmastrip #travel #couplestrip
