Heiwa no Tori and Lake Ashi are some of the most tranquil places to visit in Japan. The bright red awning over the rippling water is located inside the landmark grounds of Hakone Shrine, which is considered to be a sacred place of healing and various yearly celebrations. Visit with a friend and experience a sense of soothing calmness as you stand beneath The Gate of Peace and take in your surroundings.
