We made a day trip to lake Kawaguchi 3 weeks ago.
I heard about this place from Aileen and since Fred had not seen Mount fuji in real life before, we decided that it was better to visit that place before we get busy with school work.
It is located in the Yamanashi Prefecture and the direct bus from Nagoya takes about 4.30 hours.
Aileen went there as well. The bus which departs from Tokyo takes about a 100 minutes.
After we reached the Kawaguchi ko station, we took a retro bus to the Kawaguchi ko Music Forest.
It is a museum which showcases old music boxes and automatic musical instruments.
We saw many musical antiques from Europe but both me and Fred are not music-person.
I think Aileen enjoyed it more than us because she love music.
Interest aside, the place was so beautiful.
We had lunch in a restaurant inside the museum.
We should have known better that food served in museums are not worth the price.
After spending about 2 hours in the museum, we walked alongside the lake.
Sakura trees were not bloomed yet during that time.
But Mount Fuji was breath-taking.
The rest of the mountains were nice to see too...
We had a nice long walk and I definitely like nature more than cities.
