Mount Fuji truly rewards early risers!!

Sunrise viewing spot: Yamanakako Hirano Beach. It is strongly recommended to stay nearby for one night. Before coming, remember to check the visibility. Don't come if it's too low; it will be foggy. Wake up at 6 a.m. to watch the sunrise, then go back to the hotel for a nap. It wasn't too crowded. We took photos using a mobile phone tripod. In the photos, we are standing on a small piece of land in the lake. To get there, you need to cross a small puddle. It's not deep, but it's best to wear boots, otherwise, your shoes will get wet. This way, you can capture the reflection of Mount Fuji. Accommodation: Booking a hotel in advance is cost-effective. We booked Suyuezhuang half a month in advance for 500 per night. You can see Mount Fuji just around the corner from the hotel (It is recommended to book a cancellable hotel in advance, so you can cancel if the weather is really bad). Transportation: If you're taking a highway bus to Mount Fuji, it's best to buy tickets at the Shinjuku bus station one day in advance. When we went to buy tickets that afternoon, only buses after 4 p.m. were available, so we had to take the train. Our route was Shinjuku - Takaosanguchi - Otsuki - Kawaguchiko. We passed by Mount Fuji Station, and it was a pleasant surprise to see Mount Fuji from the train window! Then we took a bus from Kawaguchiko to Yamanakako. Also! The hotel we stayed at required a transfer to Hirano Station from Yamanakako Station, but the buses to Hirano stop running around 4-5 p.m. This meant that after we got off at the transfer station, there were no more buses, so we had to take an expensive taxi, 2800 yen for a 10-minute ride. The next day, you can take a bus back from Hirano Station. I hope everyone can see the beautiful sunrise of Mount Fuji and take beautiful photos!
