Next stop: Watch the dedicatory fireworks launching from the lake at lakesideAbout this spot
As evening approaches, the sky around the Futarasan Shrine Chuzenji Shrine lakeside changes color moment by moment. The high-altitude Lake Chuzenji lakeside stays pleasantly cool even at the height of summer, offering a refreshing experience quite different from typical city fireworks festivals. Spread out your takeout dinner and spend peaceful time surrounded by mountains and lake.
Tips
Night temperatures drop more than expected—bring a light jacket. The lakeside has limited lighting in some areas; a small flashlight is helpful for the return journey. Parking areas become congested from evening onward as fireworks viewers arrive.
Best time to visit
Approximately 2 hours 30 minutes. Be sure to enjoy the changing colors of the lake at dusk.
