Oishi Park

One of the Most Breathtaking Views of Mt. Fuji! A Must-Visit in Kawaguchiko! Oishi Park is truly one of the most stunning and peaceful places I have ever visited. Located along the shores of Lake Kawaguchiko, the park offers a perfect, postcard-worthy view of Mt. Fuji—so clear and majestic that it almost feels unreal. The combination of the lake, seasonal flowers, and Fuji in the background creates scenery that changes beautifully throughout the year. Whether it’s the vibrant lavender fields in summer, the bright kochia bushes in autumn, or the crisp, clear winter views, every season has its own magic here. The park is clean, spacious, and extremely well-maintained. Walking through the flower-lined paths is relaxing and perfect for photography lovers. It’s one of those rare places where you can simply sit, breathe, and enjoy nature without any rush. What I loved most is how accessible and visitor-friendly it is—plenty of benches, cute cafés and souvenir shops nearby, and wide-open spaces to explore at your own pace. If you’re visiting Kawaguchiko, Oishi Park is absolutely a must-visit location. The view of Mt. Fuji from here is one of the best you’ll ever see, and the entire atmosphere is peaceful, refreshing, and unforgettable. I left with so many beautiful photos and an even more beautiful memory.

Oishi Park is one of the most beautiful spots around Lake Kawaguchi to enjoy a clear and unobstructed view of Mount Fuji. The park is very well maintained with colorful seasonal flowers that change throughout the year, making it perfect for photography and a relaxing stroll. The walking paths are clean and easy to explore, with benches where you can sit and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. There are also small shops and cafes nearby selling local snacks, souvenirs, and ice cream, which is great for a short break while enjoying the scenery. This place is especially stunning on a clear day when Mount Fuji appears in full view behind the flower fields — truly postcard-worthy. Highly recommended for nature lovers, photographers, and anyone visiting the Kawaguchiko area. A must-visit spot if you want one of the best Mount Fuji views in Japan!

This is a beautiful park. I love the well tended gardens. We came during autumn and was delighted to see the fiery kochia bushes in spectacular bloom. The backdrop of the lake and mount fuji really made this park a very popular destination for tourists and locals alike. The whole park is so well kept and clean. The facilities such as parking and lavatories are also readily available. There are shops here which sells snacks and you can enjoy your coffee and snacks with a fantastic view of the park, the lake and the mountain in the background. If you don't want to leave without any mementos, there are also souvenir shops here and plenty of well positioned platforms for photographers.

Oishi Park is a scenic park located in the Yamanashi Prefecture of Japan, near the shores of Lake Kawaguchi. It's famous for its stunning views of Mount Fuji, especially during the spring and autumn months. The park has beautifully landscaped gardens with walking paths, a lovely rose garden, and a great spot for picnics. One of the highlights is the Oishi Park Flower Garden, which blooms with a variety of flowers, including lavender, sunflowers, and chrysanthemums. During certain seasons, the park hosts various flower festivals. It's also a popular spot for photography, thanks to the breathtaking views of Mount Fuji and the tranquil setting around the lake.

Oishi Park has long been the go-to viewpoint of Fujisan...and for a good reason. It really does offer a spectacular view of Mt. Fuji as it towers over the landscape. It also offers a decent view of Lake Kawaguchiko. The only downside is the high influx of tourists throughout the day. The place is always crowded. If you are like me who wants to enjoy Mt. Fuji without the hustle and bustle of the park, try biking around Lake Kawaguchiko and you'll find a more peaceful place to bask in the glory of Mt. Fuji. Trust me, there's a lot of perfect spots along the lake. I'd encourage you to discover it yourselves. 😉
