Wandering freely in this elegant Japanese garden is such a relaxing experience. If I could enjoy a cup of green tea with some wagashi here, that would be pure happiness.

Tokyo German Village
Opened in 2001 in Sodegaura City, Chiba Prefecture, this theme park was designed to resemble the rural landscape of Germany. The park, which is about 19 times the size of Tokyo Dome, is divided into four areas based on the concept of "a place where nature and people can coexist": Lake Area, Country Area, Market Area, and Park Area. You can drive right into the park, which is very convenient given the vastness of the grounds.
The park is huge! You really need to walk a lot or take the little train inside. The vibe is kind of like a European countryside—it's cute, but it doesn't feel super 'German.'

Mount Takao
Mount Takao is a peak with an levation of 599 meters, located in Tokyo’s Hachioji City. With good transportation access, it’s a popular placee to go mountain climbing. While still in the city, it’s like taking a trip to the countryside! From families with small children to the elderly, about 3,000,000 people visit every year. It’s world famous as the mountain boasting the most climbers in the world.
The cable car is super steep, so the ride is a bit thrilling. The view from the top is totally worth the ticket price.

Lake Yamanakako Pleasure Boat “Swan Lake”
Yamanakako, the largest of the Fuji Five Lakes. Once known as the “Princess Odette”, the newly revamped sightseeing boat cruising Lake Yamanakako is now operating as “Swan Lake”. The full route takes 20 minutes, offering a cozy ride as you gaze upon the gorgeous lake scenery and Mt. Fuji above.
The weather was great and it was nice and cool by the lake. The breeze on the sightseeing boat felt so comfortable 😌
The swan was super cute! 💕 -
