		I was in Hakone as a child and have vague memories of: a steep railway?

		I found several good ones that include the ropeway and boat ride routes and that would help you visualize it as you are looking at locations of hotel/ryokan accomodations.

	Golden Hakone grass looks hot for spring (01-15-2004)
		One of the plants high on my agenda is Golden Hakone grass, known botanically as Hakonechloa macra aureola, which reaches 12 to 14 inches in height.
		Growing ornamental grass like the Golden Hakone is a lot easier than you think.
		The use is almost as simple as digging a hole, planting the grass and tucking in few of your other favorite plants with the same light and soil requirements.
