Hakone - Fujiya Hotel

Fujiya hotel my mom had requested for long time and we stayed luxuriously is in Miyanoshita where it takes 30 mins by Hakone Tozan train going through fabulous vista and switchbacking some times.  It is constructed by 4 buildings built in the different age, and many famous people such as the current emperor and empress and Charlie Chaplin and Helen Keller stayed in this historical hotel.

We participated the tour that the hotel organize it to show some part of area of the building and to introduce their history. And then, Kana enjoyed swimming at the pool with her grandfather.

Our stay plan included breakfast at the main dining "The Fujiya" I was awaiting for having it in the classic and graceful atmosphere I had never been. We were able to chose from American breakfast, and French toast accompanied by hand made strawberry jam was really delicious.

After having breakfast, We headed out to see Mt. Fuji that is one more main event for my mom who had not seen it every time when she came to Hakone.  We went back and forth around Motohakone by bus to find a nice view spot, then finally we found out nothing is better than Ashino lake in Hakone to see Mt. Fuji.
