A Day at Fuji-Q Highland - Yamanashi

30/04/2008

The first glimpse of FujiQ with mount Fuji in the background
My friend  got his hands on a lucky package which includes a one day free pass to FujiQ and transport up an down from Hachioji, for just 6600 yen. now that is cheap!!!!So we ended up with a day full of  fun, scare, sweat and panic at Fuji Q. Take my word for it FujiQ is the best amusement park in Japan if you are up for adventure.This post is written just to share the funny, scary and truly enjoyable attractions listed I popped in. there were more, but some I could not take pictures and fro some we did not enter.

Red Tower
The free fall attraction where you can experience a free fall from 52 meters high with the eccentric view of Mount Fuji. Well, i rode this three times consecutively and wish I could ride/fall more times.But now I`m thinking twice before going for free falls, thanks to the Red Tower but it was great!!

Panick Clock
This attractions gives you the experience of clinging on to a crazy clock hand.Of corse the clock suddenly goes mad and sometimes it stops to indicate teh time 12 o`clock freezing us in the air for several seconds. Well, i saw mount Fuji upside down for good several seconds!!!!

Cartoon Typhoon
This was a good break after riding all those crazy free falls and clock hands. The vies of blue Mount. Fuji make you forget where you are.

Moon Rake
You start sitting parallel to the ground and then starts the ride. This crazy plate starts rotating like it has lost it s mind. Finally, it ends up with a 83degree stand up and you get to know how a nail head sees the world.

Tonde-Mina
This attraction gives you the experience of clinging to a pendulum. At its highest it reaches somewhere around 83 meters high. I don`t eat Pizza-La anymore...(joking..)

Great Zaboon
Water attraction where you have to ride the coaster in a boat like shuttle with waterproof coats on. This was extremely fun would love to go again.

Mad Mouse
This seems like it  is fro children but it of course manages to scare the hell out of adults too. Sudden curves , sudden falls add an adventurous flavor to this mini jet coater attraction.

Merry - Go Round
This was again to cool down are hearts which skipped beats several times. Kids no-kids, this healed the panic.
The hospital
This was a scary hospital where you have to find your way out with the help of a torch. blood covered Doctors, scary nurses,dead patients all come out from nowhere. This made the day. IT WAS SCARY.


Adding to all this we also visited some other main attractions and another ghost spot too.
Fujiyama - jet coaster
Ee-Janaika -jet coaster
稲川淳二の棺桶劇場 - where you are locked inside a coffin for 15 minutes or more to hide away from a blood thirsty monster.

Thomas land was for the kids so we did not waste our time on it. As two years have already passed and new attractions have been added. Wish I could go back there again.

Borobudur - Yogyakarta

2014/05/06 Borobudur is the worlds largest Buddhist temple, hence UNESCO World Heritage Site. We had plans to watch the sunrise at Borbudur over Mount Merapi. So it was an early trip to the temple around 4.30 in the dark by torch light, wait for the sunrise enjoy the view from the top of the temple, have breakfast at Manohara hotel and leave. It was pitch dark in the night, not much moon. The torchlight showed us the way and a silhouette of a temple came in to view when our eyes gradually got used to the dark. With the first rays of sunlight, we saw Mount Merapi. The beautiful but vicious volcano fuming. Loved it! All around the place is covered in mist, so the actual surroundigs are yet to be confirmed. By now the temple, which we  have already climbed and waiting at the  top, is coming in to view. The stupas, carvings and statues gradually emerge. The temple is a symmetrical stupa, consisting of nine stacked platforms: six squar...

Onabe - Japanese Hot Pot

15/05/2010 It was after spending the evening at Thai Festival 2010 in Yoyogi,Shibuya. The dinner was decided on "Nabe" at a shibuya chain restaurant of Japanese hot pot. I have always loved nabe. I have had shabu shabu hotpot, sukiyaki hotpot and seafood hotpot at Japanese houses and this was the first time I am having it at a restaurant. So I thought of sharing some moments of the supreme happiness of eating Nabe - the Japanese hotpot. Beef, eggs and the vegetables  The whole table of ingredients for the Nabe in one shot Shabu shabu and sukiyaki on one hotplate finally you dip the boiled slice of meat in the "tare" and eat. This chain restaurant is in Shibuya and limitless "tabehoudai" for less than 2000yen. Good service and loved the meat.   All Rights Reserved.
