History of Mount Fuji
-
Mount Fuji, Japan's tallest peak at 3,776 meters, is a stratovolcano that formed over the course of several hundred thousand years. The current mountain is the result of repeated volcanic activity, with the latest major eruption occurring in 1707-1708 during the Edo period. Known as the Hoei Eruption, it deposited ash as far away as Edo (now Tokyo), approximately 100 kilometers to the east.
-
Mount Fuji holds a sacred place in Japanese religion and has been a site of pilgrimage for centuries. In Shinto belief, it is regarded as the home of the goddess Sengen-Sama, who is enshrined at the Fujisan Hongū Sengen Taisha shrine. The mountain is also significant in Buddhism, where it symbolizes enlightenment and rebirth. Pilgrims traditionally climb the mountain during the summer months to honor these spiritual connections.
-
Mount Fuji has been a prominent subject in Japanese art and literature. One of the most iconic depictions is 'The Great Wave off Kanagawa,' one of the Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji by the ukiyo-e artist Katsushika Hokusai. This series underscores the mountain's cultural significance and its enduring inspiration to artists. Likewise, writers such as Matsuo Basho have penned haiku and other literary works that capture the mountain's majestic and serene presence.
-
During the Edo period (1603-1868), Mount Fuji became a popular subject for woodblock prints and travel literature, reflecting its importance in Japanese culture. The Tōkaidō road, which connected Edo (Tokyo) to Kyoto, provided travelers with numerous vantage points for viewing and appreciating the mountain. This era saw an increase in tourism to Mount Fuji, facilitated by the growing prosperity and stability of the time.
-
In the modern era, Mount Fuji continues to be a symbol of Japan and a popular destination for both domestic and international tourists. Recognizing its cultural and historical significance, UNESCO designated Mount Fuji as a World Heritage Site in 2013. The designation encompasses not only the mountain itself but also surrounding sites of cultural importance, such as the Fujisan Hongū Sengen Taisha shrine and the Shiraito Falls.
-
During World War II, Mount Fuji was used as a navigational landmark by Japanese pilots. Its iconic shape was easily recognizable from the air, making it a crucial reference point. Though the mountain itself was not a site of military conflict, its symbolic importance was leveraged in wartime propaganda to instill a sense of national pride and resilience among the Japanese people.

The buses operate frequently and connect major tourist spots like the 5th Station, Lake Kawaguchi, and Fuji Five Lakes. Taxis are available but can be expensive.

However, it is advisable to carry some cash, especially for smaller establishments and local shops. ATMs that accept international cards are available at convenience stores like 7-Eleven and FamilyMart. It’s a good idea to withdraw sufficient cash before heading into more remote areas, as ATMs can be sparse.

Mount Fuji is generally a safe destination for tourists. However, it is essential to be cautious when hiking, as weather conditions can change rapidly. The Yoshida Trail is the most popular and safest route, especially for beginners. There are no specific high-crime areas targeting tourists, but it is always wise to keep your belongings secure and avoid isolated areas at night. Emergency shelters are available along the trails in case of bad weather or injury.
-
In case of emergency, dial 110 for police assistance and 119 for fire or medical emergencies. It is highly recommended to have travel insurance that covers medical emergencies and evacuation.

Eating & Drinking: Do try local foods and always say 'Itadakimasu' before eating and 'Gochisousama' after finishing your meal. Don't leave food on your plate, as it is considered wasteful.
-
To experience Mount Fuji like a local, consider visiting during the shoulder seasons (late spring or early autumn) to avoid crowds. Take a dip in an onsen (hot spring) in the nearby towns of Hakone or Kawaguchiko for a relaxing experience. Engaging with local shopkeepers and trying regional specialties like Hoto noodles can enrich your visit. Don't miss the Chureito Pagoda for a stunning view of Mount Fuji, especially during cherry blossom season.
