Hakone ⛩

My #1 tip for exploring this popular area: Be early!

Arriving around 7am allows you to experience the location in a peaceful state, with the cloudy skies adding a beautiful, dramatic touch that makes the greenery appear even more vibrant. By 7:30am, the lines by the famous Torii gate near the water begin to form, so getting there early ensures you can enjoy the scenery without the crowds.

If you're lucky, you may even catch a magical violin concert at the glass museum, adding an unexpected touch of elegance to your visit.

Nikko, Tochigi 🍂🍁

If you're looking for an unforgettable destination next fall, I highly recommend Kegon Falls. Located just a 3-hour drive from NAF Atsugi, this stunning natural wonder is a must-see. The free observation deck offers a magnificent view of the falls from above, but for a more intimate experience, you can purchase a ticket to ride the escalator down to get closer to the cascading water. Whether you’re admiring the falls from a distance or feeling their power up close, Kegon Falls is a perfect fall getaway.

In addition to the breathtaking waterfalls, the area is rich in cultural experiences. There are numerous temples to explore, each offering a glimpse into Japan’s spiritual history, as well as several museums where you can learn about the local heritage and natural beauty. It's a perfect blend of nature, culture, and history.

I’m currently organizing my files, and as I go through them, I’ll be sharing the beautiful places I’ve had the pleasure of visiting during my time in Japan. This post marks the first in a series of snapshots from my travels. Stay tuned for more!

I’m grateful for the chance to experience the vibrant beauty of Japan during fall. Kamakura makes the perfect backdrop for portraits, too. 🍂🍁

FYI:

For Cherry Blossom photos my recommendation would be to book around those dates.
