Hakone Detached Palace Garden |
Onshi Hakone Park is situated on a peninsula that juts into Lake Ashi. The Hakone Imperial Villa was built here in 1886 as a summer retreat for the Imperial family and also to accommodate their foreign dignitary guests. The park today features a number of walking trails centered around the lakeside observation tower and the Benten no Hana observatory, offering superb views of Lake Ashi and the nearby mountains, including Mt. Fuji.
