The Hakone Open-Air Museum is Japan’s first outdoor museum, located in the scenic hills of Hakone. This museum is known for its impressive blend of art and nature, featuring large-scale sculptures, installations, and art pieces spread across beautifully landscaped grounds with views of the surrounding mountains.
Hakone Owakudani
Owakudani is a popular and dynamic volcanic valley located in Hakone, Japan. Formed around 3,000 years ago during the last eruption of Mount Hakone, it is known for its active geothermal activity, with steam vents and bubbling hot springs scattered across the landscape. Visitors to Owakudani can witness the valley’s striking scenery, characterized by rugged terrain and a distinct sulfuric smell that permeates the air.
One of the unique attractions in Owakudani is the “black eggs” (Kuro-tamago), which are regular eggs boiled in the natural hot springs, turning their shells black due to the sulfur in the water. Local legend says that eating one of these eggs can add seven years to your life.
Lake Ashi Pirate cruise
The Lake Ashi Pirate Cruise is a unique and scenic boat tour on Lake Ashi, a picturesque lake located in Hakone, Japan. The cruise is conducted on large, ornately decorated pirate ships, which are designed to resemble 17th-century European vessels.
