Shizuoka-ken Travel Forum

Hi travellers,

my question is how far (in Kms and by train) is Mt Fuji area from Tokyo (Asakusa)?
and from which station I should travel from?

I am travelling to Japan this mid October and I have a day off with JR Pass... so I was thinking in travelling to Fuji area at the end of my trip, if it is not so far and if I can do it in a day-trip.

Maybe sleeping somewhere in shibuya, could be possible as well.

Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Tzuki

Can you identify which one of the Family Crests on the "Pickett Fence" photo is specific to the OTA Family Crest?

Advice is much appreciated.

I am having an emergency trip to Fujinomiya to visit a very sick friend. I have not been there for 30 years. Are there any hotels, inns? I cannot stay with my friend as she is too ill to have guests. Thanks!

I am looking for a bus route map, time table and fare information between
JR Shin-Fuji and Fujinomiya-guchi 5th Stage.
Are there any bus routes which connect Fujinomiya-guchi 5th Stage with Kawaguchiko-guchi New 5th Stage.
Does anyone know a better Mt. Fuji area map then http://www.shizuoka-guide.com/english/travel/shizuoka/Fuji.html

Can I go by car to the 5th stations?
Is there parking space for free available?
Would I need snow wheels?

regards

Hi,
I'm planning a trip to Japan in November. I'd really like to take my kids to Fujikyu Highland Amusement Park (in particular Thomasland). On their website, Fuji-q lists the opening hours from April 1 to Sept 30. Does that mean that the park is closed for the winter? If not, what are the winter hours? Thomasland closes earlier than the rest the park, right?

Also, what is the best way to get to the amusement park from Tokyo? The Fuji-Q website lists the bus, train & a limousine service.

Finally, does anyone have recommendations for reasonably priced accommodation near the park?

Thanks very much.

Hi,
I'll be staying in Shizuoka for one night visiting a friend. I plan to be in Tokyo the following night. Was wondering if it's possible to 'do' Mount Fuji on the way from Shizuoka to Tokyo. Any advice how to go about it ? I don't want to climb it just get some good photos.

Thanks in advance,
Kevin
