Shinfu Tougenkyo is a picturesque peach orchard area near Shinfu Station in Nirasaki, Yamanashi Prefecture, easily accessible by a 15-minute walk from the station on the JR Chuo Main Line. Best visited in early to mid-April, the orchards burst into a stunning pink panorama of peach blossoms. Visitors can enjoy views of Mt.
