    Oshino Hakkai is a region named after 8 ponds where travellers can enjoy clear spring water, freshwater plants, and fish and food vendors. You and your partner can go so far as to drink straight from the source, as the ponds are clean, clear and fed by the snowmelt from Mount Fuji that filters down through layers of cooled lava.

    Around the ponds, you and your partner will find freshwater plant life and rather large fish, though it's all well maintained. This is also where you'll discover Hannoki Bayashi Shiryokan, an open-air museum showcasing traditional architecture and farming tools. It's located about an hour northeast of Fujinomiya's city centre in Shibokusa.
