On a sunny day, Lake Kawaguchiko offers some of the most fantastic views around the Fuji Five Lake region. Renting a bicycle and cycling around the lake is perhaps the best way to explore the region, as it allows one the freedom of stopping at, and visiting landmarks around the lake, or sitting in a cafe for a beer while enjoying the panoramic view. The above pictures show some of the sights available around the picturesque Kawaguchiko.

Closest to Mount Fuji I've ever got. Take away the clouds and the view would have been perfect!
