This is a perfect town to enjoy Mt. Fuji. Makaino Farm, Lake Tanuki and Shirato Fall are awesome. We had rented a car with Toyota Rent a Car in Fujinomiya. It's very easy and fun to drive in/around the town.

We loved Fujinomiya. It’s pretty quiet, but once we got our bearings and a few tips from our accommodation hosts we had great meals. Can easily see Fuji san. Close to Shrirato falls, and we drove up to Fujinomiya 5th station. The gem of the town is the Fuji World heritage centre. We could only spend a little over an hour there, well worth the visit to understand Fuji better. Easy JR access. Highly recommend and would guess a less crowed way to get to see Fuji, than travelling from Tokyo.

Fujinomiya is a small town dedicated to climbing Fuji-San and taking advantage of the many parks and open spaces that offer hiking. Public transportation is good to other villages. It is not pretentious, the people are quiet and gracious The museum on Fuji-San is amazing - a must see even if you do not climb

A beautiful and serene place, fried noodle (yakisoba) really tasty. Fujisan World Heritage Center is worthy to visit. There is a fountain in Sengen Taisha (Kuwatama Ike), the water comes out from Fujisan, it's also tasty.

There might not be much to do in this city, but it is one of the places to start a hike of Mt Fuji (summer season) or of you want a close up view of this holy mountain (other time of year). There's a nice shrine dedicated to the mountain and also the Mt Fuji world heritage centre. You should try the Fujinomiya yakisoba and the shiro-ramen (reted number 1 in Shizuoka prefecture).

There are 2 tour buses leaving from bus station 2. One in morning and one in afternoon. The morning one is to the temples and shrines in local area. One of which you can actually walk to. The afternoon route, the highlight for me was a visit to the Lake but we only could spend 15mins there. However we went to a farm where we spent much longer so this was a disappointment for me as would prefer to spend more time at the lake. If you are interested in the lake do not take the tour bus but instead take the local bus so you can spend as much time as you like at the lake. You can walk around the lake or hire a bike and spend the day. Would also recommend a trip to Mt Fuji 5th station is weather is good. We did not get there though.
