Gora Park

When you get to Hakone you simply must go to Gora as well, it's a must-see. As from there we want to arrive as soon as the lake from which the Fuji is not usually taken into account the signals that tell us of a park that is just five minutes from the station and spend half an hour worth of our time. The main reason for the park are flowers, there are flowers of every kind, color, size and smell. In the greenhouse you'll see a variety of topical plants that are absolutely gorgeous. Then you can go outside and see a Japanese garden with a tea house where we can be spectators at a small ceremony where we offer the bitter and greenish liquid.

In my opinion the ceremony isn't as strict as it should be, and I know what I'm talking about, but okay as experience, you also have to understand that is focused on tourists that usually do not know the etiquette to be followed as a guest. If you go early, stopping by before going to try to see the Fuji, that since you are in Gora worth it. Admission is 500 yen, and then you'll also have to pay for the various activities you can do inside, like tea ceremony that I remember that were another 500 yen. If you have the special Hakoke pass you'll get in for free :-) This really is a cool place to visit, so go check it out!
