A day in mid November, Brompton and I went to Tenka Chaya, a historic tavern in the mountain with a perfect view of Mt. Fuji.

Started from Shimo Yoshida Station.
Found a local shrine on the way.
Gradually gaining elevation. On the way of hill climb to Misaka Pass, a view of Mt. Fuji appeared time to time.
The mountain, Mount Mitsutoge, was filled with autumn colors.
At 1300 meters above sea level, a whole body of Mt. Fuji suddenly appeared in front of my eyes.
I love to see this snow capped Mt. Fuji. Sacred and majestic.
Before long, I arrived at Tenka Chaya, where a Japanese famous novelist Dazai stayed to name it Tenka Chaya, meaning the best view of Mount Fuji.
She is Koume, a restaurant dog.
After freezing ride in the mountain, I enjoyed Hoto, a signature noodle menu in the restaurant.
