About This Video
Obuchi Sasaba is one of the most famous green tea fields in the world. Thanks to its unique scenery, Obuchi Sasaba attracts millions of visitors every year and also happens to be the location of choice for many TV, movies, and advertising crews. Indeed, with its gorgeous tea fields, its gentle hills, and gorgeous views of Mt. Fuji, it is hard to find a prettier spot anywhere else in Japan. Because of its popularity, we would recommend you visit as early as possible to avoid the crowds. Note that it is not always easy to get both lush green tea leaves and a snow-capped Mt. Fuji and if this is exactly what you are aiming for, make sure to visit the area during or just after the Sakura season around the area, which takes place mid-April.
Note: It took us 4 years, 7 trips (we tried at different times) to finally get it right: Snow-covered Mt Fuji + green tea leaves…
