This place is rich in hot spring resources, and the water quality is excellent. It really helps relieve fatigue.
They also combine it nicely with local food and culture, so it’s a great spot to relax both body and mind.

Marronnier Gate Ginza
A large-scale shopping facility divided into 3 buildings, “Marronnier Gate 1”, “Marronnier Gate 2” and “Marronnier Gate 3”. The name of the shopping center expresses its location as the entrance of Ginza’s Marronnier Street.
The location is amazing—step out in Ginza and it’s right there, so there’s zero chance of getting lost.
The mall has a more upscale vibe, and it’s not loud or overwhelming. -

Babadaimon no Keyaki Namiki
Keyaki Namiki is a 500-meter long walkup that's flanked with over 120 Zelkova trees. The avenue serves as a promenade that leads to Okunitama-jinja Shrine, and remains the sole National Natural Monument in Japan to be designated for its Zelkova trees.
The rows of zelkova trees are seriously impressive. It feels like something straight out of a movie.

Owakudani
On the main sightseeing route around Hakone, transfer from the cable car to the ropeway at Sounzan Station. After gliding through the air for a while, the scenery suddenly changes. The lush greenery disappears, and white plumes of steam rise from exposed, craggy rock faces. This is Owakudani, a volcanic crater formed by Hakone's most recent volcanic activity. The white gas that escapes year-round from the fumaroles contains sulfur, filling the air with its distinctive smell.
As soon as I got off, that sulfur smell hit me right in the face—super intense.
White steam was billowing everywhere. It honestly looked like the gates of hell opening. -
