Best View of Mt. Fuji: Arakurayama Sengen Park & Lake Kawaguchi | Yamanashi, Japan 🗻 | 4K Walk Tour

👋🏼 Hello! Today, Jiji goes to Fujiyoshida to see Mt. Fuji 富士山! We started our walk from Honcho Street, in which we also did a walking video previously, and then headed over to Arakurayama Sengen Park to see the famous viewing spot of Mount Fuji with the pagoda on the foreground. The distance is about 1.7km or 30 minutes on foot. It may seem like a far walk, but there were a lot of interesting things to see on the way and opportunities to observe Mount Fuji. After that, we took the Thomas-themed train and a bus to get to Lake Kawaguchiko to watch the sunset.
