Hakone Adventure: Scenic train ride, Hakone woodcraft, Gora, Ryokan, Fugu hotpot|| Japan Day 3 [Sub]

We embark on a 2-day adventure to Hakone, a picturesque destination known for its natural beauty, hot springs, and stunning views of Mt. Fuji. Starting our trip from Shinjuku Station, we take the Hakone Romance Car train, passing through serene neighborhoods and getting a glimpse of Mt. Fuji.
Discover the best spots in Gora, Hakone, from delicious food to the charming shops filled with well known local woodcraft ("Hakone Yosegi Zaiku"). We'll explore the traditional inn (ryokan) that we are staying at, where we try Fugu hot pot and Kaiseki-style meals and unwind in private open-air onsens (hot spring).

We had to change our day 3 itinerary due to high wind conditions, but we got to explore more of Gora and our ryokan. Hakone is a wonderful escape from the hustle and bustle of Tokyo. Don't miss this detailed itinerary for making the most of your Hakone adventure!
