Overview of your Mount fuji tour:

Mt. Fuji worship - Its origin dates back to the ancient times when Mt. Fuji erupted furiously. People at that time did believe that fierce eruptions were caused by the anger of the deity of Mt. Fuji. Since then, Mt. Fuji has been worshipped as a sacred mountain. This tour features three key places deeply linked to Mt. Fuji worship. They all were designated as the cultural assets of Mt. Fuji World Heritage in 2013. 1) Former House of the Togawa Family - This lodging has a history of 250 years and used to offer accommodations to Mt. Fuji pilgrims. 2) Kitaguhi Hongu Fuji Sengen-jinja Shrine - Pilgrims visited there to purify themselves and pray for their safe pilgrimage to Mt. Fuji. 3) Funatsu Lava Tree Molds - The lava tree molds resemble the interior of a human body. The deepest part, especially, looks like a "Mother womb". Mt. Fuji Pilgrims, having entered there, wished for a symbolic rebirth. Why don't you trace the footsteps of the Mt. Fuji pilgrims, feeling the essence of Mt. Fuji worship?
