The driving simulator area is a big hit with kids. Adults can check out the history exhibits while the little ones enjoy the interactive stuff. There's something for everyone here.

Mt. Fuji Yume no Ohashi Bridge
A bridge on National Route 139 in Tadehara, Fuji City, Shizuoka Prefecture. From the bridge, you can enjoy a full view of Mt. Fuji with no buildings, power lines, or other obstructions, making it a popular viewing spot in recent years. In particular, the composition in which the staircase section of the bridge looks as if it continues all the way to Mt. Fuji has become a popular photo spot, attracting many international visitors.
It’s really beautiful on a clear day. The view of the bridge with Mt. Fuji in the distance feels so dreamy, and pretty much every photo looks like a postcard.

cafe SKY 40
A stunning-view cafe inside the Kuchu Teien Observatory at Umeda Sky Building, the only site in Japan selected for a UK publisher’s “Top 20 Buildings in the World.” More than the location, the menu stands out, especially the original coffee made with carefully selected beans.
The coffee and desserts are solid but nothing mind-blowing. The view definitely makes it feel a lot better, though.
If you’re nearby or just want a cafe with a nice view, it’s a decent place to sit for a bit. -
Itadaki no Mori (The Summit Forest)
Located in Shinhotaka Onsen in the Okuhida Onsenkyo area of Takayama City, this ropeway offers a spectacular journey through the skies. From Shinhotaka Onsen Station to Nishihotakaguchi Station, visitors transfer between the First and Second Ropeways to enjoy a 3,200-meter ride with breathtaking alpine views.
It's really peaceful and relaxing here. Lots of greenery and the air feels fresh. As soon as you walk in, you just feel your mood slow down.
It's not crowded with tourists, so it's more of a nature spot. Perfect for a stroll or snapping some forest-style photos. There aren't many man-made facilities, but that's actually what makes it so comfortable. If you want to get away from the noise and just enjoy a quiet walk, this place is pretty great.
