    Scenic spots and Parks
    Kofu and suburbs

    The facilities that can be enjoyed by all generations and the scenery that changes with the seasons make it the perfect place for excursions and trips.
    The well-maintained promenade, where you can see the long-carved granite cliffs, oddly-shaped rocks and stones, and clear, abundant water, is said to have the best canyon beauty in Japan, allowing you to enjoy the beauty of the canyon up close, which changes from season to season.
    In particular, the view of Kakuenbong Peak and Senggataki Waterfall, and a stroll through the stone gate and Tenko Forest are magical experiences.
    It is also a place where you can create and buy accessories using crystals and natural stones, and visit power spots and shrines to boost your luck.
