    Fujisan World Heritage and Nenba Village

    8. oktober, Japan ⋅ ☁️ 24 °C

    After coming down the mountain, we visited the excellent Fujisan World Heritage Centre. Consisting of two halls, the Centre presents the history, geography and geology in really entertaining and informative ways. After the museum, we had lunch then we toured some of the Five Lakes that Fujisan created over time. Bearing in mind that Mt Fuji is a young volcano, and is still active!

    On the northwest side of Lake Saiko, one of the Fuji Five Lakes, and spread out across a fan-shaped area with a view of Mt. Fuji, there was a village that was once called “the most beautiful village in Japan.” This village was destroyed by a typhoon in 1966 and a way of life ended. But later it was decided to recreate as far as possible this traditional village as an open air museum with its magical view of My Fuji. Artisans labour there now and we also enjoyed watching the Russian tourists dress up in traditional dress and besport themselves for photographic opportunities. Graham assisted a few to make great memories, as we did ourselves. A really wonderful day!    Les mer
