Welcome to that famous My Fuji Retro town view from Fujiyoshida Honcho – a street that hasn’t changed much in decades. Love it! This is the shot that is often on instagram and Facebook. If making a trip here, stay for a while and visit the friendly people of Fujiyoshida! We had a few conversations with locals and store owners who love visitors.
NOTE: Please do not stay in the middle of the street here. Make sure no cars are coming. Take the photo and go quickly. It is dangerous and there are signs in English not to stand in the street. (That’s for us tourists!) Get permission from the Fujiyoshida city or neighborhood if you plan to do a shoot – so no one is hurt esp during busy hours. You can’t really see Mt Fuji at night so … don’t go at night. Haha!
(Unless the moon is crazy bright or you have a massive spotlight from space!)
Where is this?
