Check out the beautiful views of Mt. Fuji, the Izu Peninsula, Surga Bay (Shizuoka Prefecture) and Sagami Bay (Kanagawa Prefecture) from the summit of Jukkoku Pass (十国峠), which is located about about 115 km (72 mi) southwest of Tokyo, Japan. | 今回の動画は、静岡県の十国峠の風景撮影です。
Assuming you have good weather, Jukkoku Pass offers photographers and tourists clear views of Sagami Bay to the east, Suruga Bay to the west, Izu Peninsula to the south, and Mt. Fuji to the north. The summit is mostly covered in various kinds of tall grasses, meaning that there are no tall trees to obstruct your view.
Check out my blog for detailed information regarding how to access this location, reference sources regarding the history of the summit, and numerous Google Maps links for all of the scenes presented in this video:
