Lavender on the shores of Lake Kawaguchiko

Main content starts here.

In June, you can see the purple color of lavender near the shores of Lake Kawaguchiko, or by the side of the town road. The lavender plants are in full bloom in mid-June. Around this time, the Kawaguchiko Herb Festival is held in the venues of two big parks in Fujikawaguchiko Town (Yagizaki Park and Oishi Park). Plants of several kinds of lavender are on sale in that event. Oishi Park is known as a photographing spot, popular among photography enthusiasts, where you can take pictures of the lavender with Mt. Fuji with its wide skirt.The best time to see the flowers is late June to early July.
