Tokyo to Gora

We made our way to Tokyo station and bought some train snacks. We then caught the Shinkansen to Odawara and then the train to Hakone-Yamote. Here we paid for the luggage to be transferred to our hotel and caught the ‘H’ bus to Hakone checkpoint.

We spent some time looking at the exhibits and climbed up to the lookout. We the did the cedar walk before walking to Hakone Jinja Shrine. It was really busy here with a long line of people waiting for a photo with the Tori gate. We didn’t wait.

Instead we went a caught the pirate ship 🚢 cruise across the lake and then the rope way up the mountain. At the top we bought and ate the black eggs before catching the next section of the rope way towards Gora.

We decided to catch the cable car down further but it was so busy we came back up and checked in to our Ryokan.

We stayed in the room and had green tea. In the evening we had a traditional meal and the futons were laid out.

I then went in the onsen for a while before bed. Czytaj więcej
