About this place
Arakurayama Sengen Park is a hillside park in Fujiyoshida, Yamanashi, where the red five-storey Chureito Pagoda frames Mount Fuji, a view made famous with the park’s roughly 650 cherry trees in spring. The mapcode points at Arakura Fuji Sengen Shrine, below the pagoda.
The park car park holds 87 cars and is full early in cherry blossom season and on clear weekends; Shimoyoshida Station on the Fujikyu line is a ten-minute walk if you would rather leave the car elsewhere. The pagoda viewpoint is reached by the Sakuya-hime stairway, 398 steps and about 200 m long, so allow time for the climb.

How to enter this in your car navigation
- On the navigation home screen, choose Destination (目的地).
- Choose Mapcode (マップコード) from the search methods.
- Type the digits, then the asterisk and the last two digits.
- Confirm the map preview shows the right area before you set the route.
Most Japanese rental cars (Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Times, Orix) accept mapcodes. Some older units ignore the *nn suffix. That is fine, because it only refines the pin.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the mapcode for Arakurayama Sengen Park (Chureito Pagoda)?
- The mapcode is 161 276 398*21, pointing at a spot in 山梨県. Written as decimal degrees the same point is 35.498734, 138.799140. A navigation unit takes the mapcode in far fewer keystrokes than the coordinates, so enter the code.
- What is a mapcode?
- A mapcode is a short numeric code that identifies a spot in Japan, developed by Denso. Japanese car navigation systems accept it directly, which avoids typing a Japanese address on a Japanese keyboard.
- How do I enter a mapcode in a Japanese rental car?
- On the navigation unit choose Destination (目的地), then Mapcode (マップコード), then type the digits. The two digits after the asterisk are an optional precision suffix; older units simply ignore them.
- What do the digits after the asterisk mean?
- They are a high-resolution suffix that narrows the point to roughly a few metres. Without them the code still resolves, just to a slightly wider area.
