This beautiful shrine stands by the lake. I took a taxi from the station just to visit, and it was absolutely worth the trip.

Ise Sea Paradise
Ise Sea Paradise is an aquarium in Ise City near Meoto Iwa, a pair of large and small rocks standing offshore. The facility is known for its “zero-distance” encounters with marine mammals, fish, and other sea creatures. In addition to performances such as the Sea Lion Show, Walrus Walk, and Steller Sea Lion Feeding Time, it offers many opportunities to interact directly with the animals.
After visiting Ise Sea Paradise, you might gain a deeper appreciation for the wonders of nature and feel more aware of the importance of marine conservation.

Hakone Shrine
Hakone Shrine sits just steps from Lake Ashi, a spot dotted with coveted Hakone destinations like Owakudani and Togen-dai. The shrine heralds the Hakone Ookami god, and remains one of the most renowned shrines in Kanto.
Hakone Shrine has a gorgeous torii gate in the water—makes for great photos! The only downside is that it's crowded, so you'll have to wait in line.

Hakone-Yumoto Onsen Hot Spring Village
Hakone-Yumoto Onsen Hot Spring Village is known as one of the seven hot springs in Hakone and the largest hot spring resort in Hakone.
Take the Odakyu Romancecar from Shinjuku Station to Hakone-Yumoto Station, then transfer to the Hakone Tozan Cable Car. You can see all the famous Hakone sights along the way.
