I went to the beautiful Mt.Fuji view spot near Lake Kawaguchiko.
Tenku no Torii
This is a far-off place of worship at Kawaguchi Sengen Shrine.
In March 2019, a forest was cut off and a torii gate was erected to worship the deity of Kawaguchi Sengen Shrine, Mt.Fuji, from a height.
It takes about 30 minutes from Kawaguchi Sengen Shrine at the foot of the mountain.
If you cross the gate, there is a stone with a sacred rope and paper.
Iwanagahime( rock queen)
This stone is a sister of Mt.Fuji.
She is ugly not like a beautiful sister Mt.Fuji but has an eternal life.
Also she is the idea of Japanese anthem KIMIGAYO( thousands years of reign)
Mother waterfall
If you walk a little further up the mountain there is the Mother waterfall Shrine.
It’s also a branch of Kawaguchi Sengen Shrine.
In the quiet mountain ,there is a mysterious waterfall.
Kawaguchi sengen shrine
Kawaguchi sengen shrine is UNESCO World Heritage Site.
If you have a chance to visit Lake Kawaguchiko area, try here!
You will feel the beauty of the nature and Japanese history!
I’m Nobu, one heart enjoy together!!!
