Mt Fuji is a designated "sacred place and source of artistic inspiration" and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is Japan's tallest mountain at 12,388 feet and dominates the landscape of Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park.
A one-hour coach ride brings you to Fujisan Hongu Sengen Taisha Shrine, located in the southwestern foothills of Mt Fuji. Constructed in the early 1600s, the shrine, the inner and outer shrines, and the tower gate remain. In springtime, the grounds are awash with color from the blossoms of 500 cherry trees.
You'll stop at the Mt Fuji World Heritage Center — a museum and visitor center dedicated to Mt Fuji. The central building sports a cladding of wood lattice in the shape of an inverted cone. From the top floor, take in the magnificent view of Mt Fuji (weather permitting).
Notes:
Wear comfortable walking shoes. Weather and atmospheric conditions vary; no guarantee is offered with regard to visibility or views on any particular day. Bring local currency, as many vendors do not accept credit cards or US dollars. Unfamiliar accents can be challenging; feel free to ask your guide to repeat or elaborate on information, and to speak more slowly so you can fully comprehend and converse. Tour sequence may vary.
