Ikaho Onsen

Indulge in the healing gold and silver baths of the historic hot springs, known for their color and location at the foot of Mt. Haruna, Ikaho Onsen is a relaxing spot with a beautiful lake and many outdoor attractions.

In the center of the town there are 365 steps that go up about 300 meters to the Ikaho Shrine. The stairs were originally built by the great military strategist Masayuki Sanada during the turbulent Sengoku period at the end of the 16th century, hoping to make it easier for wounded soldiers to access the spring for healing. It is now a leisure and wellness center.

Karuizawa

Karuizawa is located in the south-central part of Nagano, at the foot of Mount Asama, only an hour's drive from Tokyo. It has been a favorite of wealthy urbanites since the 19th century. At that time, foreigners living in Tokyo wanted to escape the sultry city, and Karuizawa appeared at the right time. Karuizawa's lively streets offer plenty of shopping, fine dining and pretty woodlands nearby. If you come to Nagano, don't miss to visit Karuizawa Akira.

Kawaguchiko Tenjozan Park

The Fuji Five Lakes are Lake Yamanaka, Lake Kawaguchi, Lake West, Lake Shoji and Lake Motosu. These scenic lakes offer breathtaking views no matter the season, and are ideal for some of the finest entertainment and cultural activities in Japan.

In autumn, the foliage of Kawaguchiko turns colorful and presents a dizzying sight. For the best view of Mt. Fuji, try taking photos of the Chureito Pagoda in Arakurayama Asama Park. The photo of the Chureito Pagoda standing in front of Mt. Fuji has quickly become the most popular photo spot in the Fuji Five Lakes area. The sight of the trees on the northern shore of Lake Kawaguchi starting to change color in early November.

Oshino Hakkai

"Hakkai" refers to the eight ponds of Oshino Hakkai, which are also the main attractions here. Walking on bridges and trails to admire the tranquil pond, looking at traditional thatched houses, slowly turning waterwheels, and the stunning scenery of Mount Fuji, it feels like entering another era.

Hakone-machi Ashigarashimo-gun

Whether locals or foreign tourists, Hakone is one of the most popular sightseeing spots, and it is not only famous for its hot springs. Hakone is one of the main places people go when they want to escape the hustle and bustle of the city, an area of natural beauty and spectacular scenery. In autumn, Hakone's leaves turn orange and red hues.

Although Hakone is beautiful all year round, it is especially bright in autumn. From October to November, this area will be soaked in bright red and yellow, adding lively colors to the already beautiful scenery. The view of Mount Fuji surrounded by red maples has not only created thousands of postcards, it is also a classic Japanese scene.

Kamakura Daibutsu Den Kotoku In

Known as the Great Buddha of Kamakura, this bronze Buddha statue dates back to the 13th century and is the second tallest bronze Buddha statue in Japan. This Buddha statue is an iconic attraction and the most visited tourist attraction in the Kanto region.

The Buddha statue is 11.3 meters high and weighs 121 tons. This is a bronze statue of Amitabha, second only to the Great Buddha of Todai-ji Temple in Nara in height.

Like the statues in Nara, the Great Buddha of Kamakura was originally housed in a temple building after it was cast in the 13th century. But in the 14th and 15th centuries, the main hall housing the Buddha statues was repeatedly damaged by typhoons, tsunamis and earthquakes. So in 1498, the statue's caretakers succumbed to the irresistible forces of nature and exposed the statue to the wind and rain. Since then, the standing Buddha has become a sacred symbol of Kamakura.
