Yamanashi Prefecture: The Fuji Five Lakes – Kawaguchiko Lake

Kawaguchiko is one of the Fuji Five Lakes, a region at the base of Mount Fuji, Japan. The Fuji Five Lakes are Yamanaka, Kawaguchi, Saiko, Shoji, and Motosu. The Kawaguchiko Lake is the easiest place to access among the Fuji Five Lakes as trains and buses connect it to Tokyo. We went there early in the morning to ensure that Mount Fuji is not covered with clouds. 

Mount Fuji in Lake Kawaguchiko

Kawaguchiko Lake is at its best during Autumn and Cherry blossom seasons, you will see the stunning view of Mount Fuji together with Maple or Sakura leaves.

Autumn was about to end when we visited the place, but it was not too late because the Momiji Kairou or Maple Corridor is still filled with maple leaves.

To get to the Mapple Corridor, we took a bus from Kawaguchiko Station then dropped at Itchiku Kubota Art Museum bus stop. From there, we took a few minutes of walk to reach the Mapple Corridor.
There are food stations and souvenir shops in Kawaguchiko. We drank a small cup of hot Sake before leaving the place. 
Here's a short video clip about seeing Mount Fuji inside the moving train, taken while we were on our way to Kawaguchiko station.
