Yamanashi's Crown Jewels

Centered on the UNESCO World Heritage site of Mount Fuji, this collection encompasses the Fuji Five Lakes and the historic Sengen Shrines used by pilgrims for centuries. Key sites include the eight crystal-clear ponds of Oshino Hakkai, fed by decades of volcanic snowmelt, and the geological lava tubes of the Narusawa Ice Cave within Aokigahara Forest. The list also highlights regional culinary traditions like houtou noodles and the scenic Nishizawa Gorge, known for its granite cliffs and tiered waterfalls.
