Set in the backdrop of Mount Fuji, located a 10 minute bus drive from Kawaguchiko station, enjoy a comfortable landscape and view of the volcano on your journey here. This place offers a wide variety of self playing musical boxes of all shapes and sizes. Contains many vintage pieces as well, with some instruments over 100 years old. Great place to visit, very quiet and clean, with opportunities to see Fuji in the background. Performances are held all day round, with the clerk explaining the history and information of these instruments. Bear in mind they only offer these in Japanese. An excellent visit to take your families or loved ones, enjoying the magnificent scenery of Fuji whilst enjoying a nice stroll and listening to calm and enjoyable tunes from a century ago.

It is a place that you simply must see while in Kawaguchiko(河口湖).A thrilling and unique experience is provided by various performances that use several music boxes coordinated together. The performances take place at various times. Visit the Music Forest for two to three hours, and make sure to check the performance schedule to make the most of your time there. The architecture and landscaping, with European influences, are very remarkable.

This is a place you must visit if you are in kawaguchiko area, we watch two different session of the opera show and a sand shows. It definitely worth the ticket prices to enjoy the music box and the view is nice. The place might be small but the activities can make u feel so nice for couple hour. The music box souvenir shop is also a good place to purchase some gift for your friends.
