Mount Fuji (Fujisan) is with 3776
meters Japan's highest mountain. It is not surprising
that the nearly perfectly shaped volcano has been
worshipped as a sacred mountain and experienced big
popularity among artists and common people.
Mount Fuji is a dormant volcano, which most recently
erupted in 1708. It stands on the border between
Yamanashi and Shizuoka Prefectures and can be seen from
Tokyo and Yokohama on clear days.
Note however, that clouds and poor visibility often
block the view of Mount Fuji, and you have to consider
yourself lucky if you get a clear view of the mountain.
Visibility tends to be better during the colder seasons
of the year than in summer, and in the early morning and
late evening hours.
