The cherry blossoms here are absolutely breathtaking. I was really moved by how beautiful they were.

Michi-no-Eki, Fujiyoshida
This roadside station always ranks near the top, which is a wonderful spot to view Mt.Fuji straight ahead.
A lot of drivers stop here for a quick break. There are outdoor shops and an indoor play area for kids. You get a really clear view of Mt. Fuji from here.

Zenkoji Temple
This historical large-scaled temple is about 59,000 square meters (about 5.9 ha) and was founded 1400 years ago. Many Buddhist facilities fill the compound. Some of them are; Daikanjin and Daihongan (they are also independent temples), and guests' quarters. This temple was founded at a specific time before the various subsects of Buddhism came into being. Some of the worshippers were those with power at the time, such as Minamoto no Yoritomo and Tokugawa Ieyasu , as well as the common people.
There are tons of shops to check out along the Omotesando street.

Saiko 'Iyashi no sato NENBA'
The Nenba area, once home to rows of thatched-roof buildings, is located along the shore of Lake Saiko, overlooking Mt. Fuji and Aokigahara Forest. However, there was terrible damage from the typhoon of 1966, which destroyed most of the town.
Walking among these old houses, you really get to see the beauty of traditional Japan. This place is thoughtfully designed.
