Honcho Street, Fujiyoshida
本町通り（富士吉田）
A retro shopping street with a Showa-era feel and Mt. Fuji rising at its end. It is one of the most photographed Fuji viewpoints on social media.
Honcho Street, on both sides of the road in the Shimo-Yoshida area of Fujiyoshida City, is lined with old-fashioned Showa-style shops. At the end of the street, Mt. Fuji rises majestically, creating a striking streetscape. Nearby are the Fuji Dream Bridge, the old Gekkoji Temple neighborhood, and several retro cafés. The street is an active traffic lane, so please take photos from the sidewalk and do not stand in the middle of the road or obstruct traffic. Local authorities have issued repeated reminders to visitors. From Shimo-Yoshida Station or Gekkoji Station on the Fujikyu Line, it is a 5 to 10 minute walk.
