- Mount Fuji: a symbol of the Land of the Rising Sun, recognized as a World Cultural Heritage site (at the time of the actual trip, the group will visit either Station 5 or Station 1 of Mount Fuji depending on the traffic situation and the actual weather conditions allowed by the Japanese government for sightseeing access). Station 5 is the most famous station on Mount Fuji, which is accessible almost year-round and is a popular sightseeing spot even outside of climbing season thanks to its 2300 meters above sea level altitude. Fuji Subaru Station 5 has a panoramic view of the Five Lakes of Mount Fuji with a beautiful scenery.
After lunch, the group will continue to Nagano and visit:
- Matsumoto Castle: one of the largest castles in Japan. The main 5-story, 6-tiered castle tower was built in the late 16th century and is the oldest existing castle tower in the country. In autumn, the rows of red and yellow maple leaves, the crimson-colored bridges, and the original stone structures, with the background of the Northern Alps in the back, will create an even more romantic scenery than ever before.
After dinner, the coach will take you back to the hotel to check in and rest.

Takayama Old Village is famous for the name "Little Kyoto", located in Gifu Prefecture, Japan. Here, the Miyakawa River flows through, separating the East side from the old town, and the center is Sanmachi. This area was a very prosperous city during the Edo period. The group has lunch at a local restaurant, then continues to visit: - Shirakawago Village: a beautiful village that seems to have stepped out of a legend, nestled at the foot of Mount Haku-san. The special feature of this village is the Gassho-zukuri wooden houses with sloped roofs covered with thatch, looking like praying hands. The village was recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage site in 1995. - Gunjo Hachiman Castle is an ancient castle located in Gunjo, Gifu Prefecture. Built in the 16th century, it is one of the few mountain castles remaining in Japan, famous for its architecture and scenery.
