Hakone: A Day Trip to the Hakone Open-Air Museum 🌟

#Hakone #HakoneTravel #HakoneOpenAirMuseum #HakoneTravelGuide #HakoneMuseum #HakoneDayTrip #TravelWithKids 🌇 Transportation: Tokyo - Hakone 🌊🎢 First Leg: Take the JR train from Tokyo to Hakone-Yumoto Station, or the Shinkansen to Odawara and then transfer to the Hakone Tozan Line to Hakone-Yumoto Station. 🍃🌺Avoid the Shinkansen if possible – buying tickets and waiting for the train is a hassle, and the fare is expensive. 🚇 Second Leg: From Hakone-Yumoto Station, transfer to another Hakone Tozan Line train (Gora direction) and head uphill. Get off at the Hakone Open-Air Museum Station. 🌊🎢 Walk two minutes to the left from the station, and you'll arrive at the museum. 🌿 Admission: 🍃🌺Buy tickets on-site. Adults: 2000 yen, payable by cash or Visa card. The ticket seller will offer you a choice of three languages for the park guidebook – go for Chinese! 📖 🌊🎢 Luggage Storage: There are lockers at Hakone-Yumoto Station, Hakone Open-Air Museum Station, and the museum entrance, but the number of lockers is limited. 🍃🌺 It costs 100 yen to store your luggage at the museum entrance. I arrived at Hakone-Yumoto Station at 12 p.m., and all the lockers were full. 🌟 I had to carry my suitcase uphill! Not many people would bring a suitcase up the mountain like I did, right? Attention!! Keep several 100-yen coins on you – they're handy for using the lockers. 🪙 #Tokyo 🌟
