Kitaguchi Hongu Fuji Sengen-Jinja

We are here in the Shinto shrine dedicated to the goddess of Mount Fuji, the kami of the calm waters of the mountain. A large Japanese cypress and cedars of several centuries welcome you, just like from the entrance a large red torii , the largest wooden torii in Japan, which will make your soul grow at once.

Moss-covered stone lanterns create a solemn ambiance on the way to the temple, even more so if you walk it to Yoshida-guchi , THE starting point for climbing Mount Fuji , kilometer point 0 to 850 m d 'altitude. Of course, it is also possible to go directly by car to the fifth station, at 2,305 m , but it would be a shame not to do the ascent on foot as in the Edo period (1603-1868). For the most valiant and sporty anyway!

You will be able to know everything about its history, but especially about the climatic and weather conditions of this mountain.
