Hakone has become one of Japan’s top destinations because of it’s proximity to the majestic Mt. Fuji. Hakone offers some of the best views of Mt. Fuji because of it’s close proximity and beautiful surroundings. The best time to see Mt. Fuji would be in the morning because by mid-day it’s usually covered by fog. Ascend up Mt. Hakone, an active volcano, where you can see bubbling hot springs, fuming sulfur vents, and gorgeous views of Mt. Fuji.
As the world’s most populous metropolis, Tokyo boasts an array of endless activities, such as top UNESCO sights, world-class cuisine, and entertainment for everyone. Here are our top 10 activities for Tokyo first timers: The world-famous Tsukiji market is the heart of Japan’s long tradition of seafood cuisine. Standing in the world’s busiest intersection allows you to watch the migration of people crossing back and forth in a beehive manner, which will leave you stuck in amazement. One of Japan’s most important structures, Meiji Shrine is dedicated to the country’s first modern emperor.
Shibuya Crossing is one of Tokyo’s most visited tourist attraction, but where is the best view of the world’s busiest intersection? There are many cafes and restaurants that offer a window view, but that means you have to pay for a meal or wait forever for a table just to snag a quick view.

However, we noticed that many people only spend about 5-10 minutes up there to take a quick photo of Shibuya Crossing and surrounding skyscrapers then head inside for lunch/dinner.
