    Fuji 5 Lakes (around Mt Fuji)

    The Kubota Itchiku Museum of Art was opened in 1994 by Itchiku Kubota, a dyeing artist who was fascinated by Tsuji-ga-hana, a type of dyeing popular in the Muromachi period (1336-1573), and wanted to preserve for posterity the many works he revived as Itchiku Tsuji-ga-hana in the modern age.
    The museum's main gate is a combination of several types of doors used in ancient Indian castles, and the museum shop offers a wide range of items that visitors can only purchase here, such as a tea set with a view of the seasonal Ryumon Waterfall, and accessories made of dragonfly beads, which Kubota Itchiku loved. The museum shop, which can only be found here, is a place where visitors can enjoy a sense of comfort and relaxation.
