Hakone Shrine was founded in the 8th century on Mount Koma/Komagatame, which is one of the peaks and central cones of Mount Hakone (a complex volcano). At some point, the shrine was moved to Lake Ashi, and the view of the torii in the water (and Mount Fuji in the background, of course) makes for a peaceful scene.
Also, we took the pirate ship sightseeing boat around the lake. It’s the only way to travel.
