Hakone-Machi and Moto Hakone-Ko


13th May 2009, we continue our journey in Hakone by taking a pirate cruise ship from Togendai to the small town of Hakone Machi. Here's a favorite shot of the cruise ship taken by my hubby in full resolution. The cruise took 30 minutes and the sights along the way was stunning. We saw a couple of torii gates in Lake Ashi itself.

When we reached Hakone Machi, we got a bit disoriented as to which direction to head. We were planning to walk to Moto Hakone-Ko, a 30 minutes walk going past an ancient cedar tree avenue. The cedar trees took some time to find, but the walk through it was well worth it! The trees were really tall, and flowers grow all around them. It was like we were in a middle of a Hayao Miyazaki movie!

In the middle of the cedar avenue walk, my hubby took this shot of a torii gate of Hakone Shrine. It's another one of my favorite photo, and I've also uploaded it in full resolution :)
