    This lake to the west of Mt. Fuji in Inokashira, Fujinomiya City has a circumference of around four kilometers. Visitors can enjoy the seasonal scenery of the lake shore, which includes cherry blossoms and autumn foliage, as well as activities such as boating, camping, and Japanese crucian carp fishing. Because of Mt. Fuji's position due-east of the lake, the visitors may be able to catch a Double Diamond Fuji, which refers to when a sunrise directly over Mt. Fuji's peak is reflected on the lake's surface.

Shizuoka Areas

With the giant Pacific Ocean to the south and the great Mount Fuji to the north, Shizuoka prefecture is blessed with some of the best views the country has to offer. The white sand beaches of the Izu Peninsula are a rare find on mainland Japan, neighbored by beautiful cliffs, tumbling hills, and natural hot springs. As Japan’s largest producer of green tea, the age-old tradition of tea drinking is ubiquitous in Shizuoka, from the miles of tea fields to the old tea houses hosting traditional tea ceremonies.
