The Odakyu Hotel de Yama, located on the shores of Lake Ashi in Hakone, is an authentic resort hotel in an unbeatable location, with Lake Ashi sparkling before your eyes and a magnificent view of Mount Fuji opposite the garden. Built on the site of the former villa of Baron Koyata Iwasaki, the hotel still retains strong traces of its former days and exudes a romantically classic atmosphere. The large garden boasts a vast area that was inherited from the former Iwasaki Residence, designed to make the most of the natural characteristics of the hillside so that the flowers and trees of the four seasons grow in harmony with the majestic form of Mt. Fuji, as well as the deep blue waters of Lake Ashi. Colorful azaleas and rhododendrons begin to bloom in May in the vast garden, creating a spectacular view against Mt. Fuji and Lake Ashi in the background. In 2022, the garden's azaleas were recognized as "National Collection No. 10" by the Japan Association of Botanical Gardens, and in 2023, the rhododendrons were recognized as "National Collection No. 15". 230 hydrangeas of 25 varieties bloom from mid to late June. The Rose Garden is at its best twice a year, in June and October, which fills the garden with a sweet fragrance of rose. We hope you enjoy this garden filled with flowers from season to season to your fullest desire!

Mt. Oyama has been a theme for rakugo "Oyama Mairi" and a subject matter of Ukiyoe. Afuri Jinja (Shinto shrine) and Aburisan Oyamadera (Buddhist temple) were deeply believed in by the common people in Edo and this religious development had led to prosperity of shukubo (pilgrims' lodging) and souvenir shops at Mt. Oyama.About 50 shukubos are still in business and their specialty are tofu dishes. Clear spring water is used in making tofu. Each shukubo provides a variety of tofu dishes. Tamagaki (a fence around a shrine), Temizuya (place to wash hands and mouth), and Kabukimon (gate) create an atmosphere and liveliness of Edo period. The view from Oyama Afuri Jinjya was published on Michelin Green Guide Japon in June 2015 (Heisei 27) as a two-star scenic spot. Furthermore, "Oyama Mairi" was registered as Japan Heritage in April 2016 (Heisei 28). Mt. Oyama will draw many visitors/tourists' attention.
