Hakone Shrine, famous as a power spot, has its Torii (shrine gate) gate on the shore of Lake Ashi. On this day, when the wind was a little strong, Mt. Fuji appeared majestic with the blue sky from the cloudy sky, creating a very solemn atmosphere.

On a chilly spring day, the sight of enjoying marine sports with Mt. Fuji in view is very exciting. I think I'm going to try SUP this year.

Introducing popular sightseeing spots in Kanagawa Prefecture! 【Azumayama Park】 A scenic park famous for its "early-blooming rape blossoms" Located in Ninomiya Town, Azumayama Park is a scenic spot overlooking the majestic Mt. Fuji and Sagami Bay. In January ~ February, about 60,000 "early-blooming rape flowers" are in full bloom, and the slopes near the summit are covered with a yellow carpet. It takes about 20 minutes to get to the summit. There are several courses, but if you are a first-timer, we recommend the "Town Hall Exit Course", which is the closest to Ninomiya Station. The path with the sunlight shining through the trees is comfortable, and you can have a picnic on the lawn at the top of the mountain, and a peaceful time is flowing.
