Less than 100km from Tokyo and a favoured spot for a break Hakone forms part of the Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park. Hakone is famous for its hot springs, awesome beauty and, of course, the view of Mt. Fuji, Hakone is one of the most popular destinations among Japanese and international tourists and many come to see the Hakone Open-Air Museum, Owakudani Nature Trail and, if time permits, Hakone Check Point and/or Narukawa Art Museum.
