(Mt. Fuji in winter - summit is crowded with snow .. beautiful)
(From Tokyo, it can be seen)
We Japanese call it "Fuji-san", (san= "mountin"). It is 3,776m high with a nearly perfect conic shape. Maybe anyone have seen a picture or postcard of Mt. Fuji once.
Especially it looks very elegant when the summit is crowded with snow in winter.
We can climb Mt. Fuji - climbing route is divided into stations, up to 10 stations (to 5 stations, we can drive up) It takes about 5- 8 hours to climb.
When I climbed Mt. Fuji, I started to climbing at night to see the sunrising. The view from the summit was spectacular. And I thought "I am the top of the No. 1 mountain in Japan. I did it!"
Though it was tough climb, I felt a sense of achievement. The climbing period is only in summer (From end of July to end of August. But by car, driving up to 5 station is always OK)
Recently many Chinese travelers have visited Japan. Their most popular course is so called "Golden Route"(Tokyo - Osaka, including Mt. Fuji)
The news reported that 100 buses/day (= 3,000 Chinese travelers) arrive at the No.5 station of Mt.Fuji everyday. Most Chinese travelers buy postcards there and send letters to their home in China. The average postcards sent to China/day is about 1,000 cards!
