1001 Places/Experiences to See or Savour After Remission #213

- Mount Fuji, Tokyo

 

(And so, we arrived at the highlight of this trip, Mount Fuji..right at its foothill, with 3776m right above us. But unfortunately, we couldn't go further up than level 1, when we were supposed to head up to level 5 of a total of 8, thwarted by the authorities there, who must have thought that an eruption was imminent. It was a bit of a deflated feeling, having seen so many wonderful Mt Fuji photos in travel programs. Still, the whole area was charming, with a cold 5C temperature at the hotel and ski-resort just nearby)
