Major city · Japan
Fujino藤野
Skip unless quiet hills and low-cost onsen appeal to you; half a day suits most travellers, but it depends on your own pace.
Fujino is a small town in the hills of Kanagawa, part of Sagamihara City since 2007, about 1.5 h from Tokyo by train. It is known locally as the 'Tibet of Kanagawa' for its topography and distance from the city. The documented draws are hillside walking and several hot springs, which cost less than in major cities.
