Hakone & Lake Ashi

Hakone is a hot-spring resort area in the mountains near Mt. Fuji. A boat ride on Lake Ashi, with its red torii gate at the water's edge, is a highlight, often combined with a ropeway over volcanic valleys.

About Tokyo

Japan's capital is a huge, orderly metropolis where old shrines and quiet gardens sit beside neon districts and glass towers. It is easy to get around by train, safe at all hours and excellent for food, shopping and day trips towards Mt. Fuji.
