Mount Fuji is the highest mountain in Japan, rising to 12,388 feet.
Visible from Tokyo on a clear day, the beautiful cone-shaped mountain
is located west of the city, surrounded by lakes in a national park.
Mount Fuji is named for the Buddhist fire goddess Fuchi
and is sacred to the Shinto goddess Sengen-Sama,
whose shrine is found at the summit.
It is the holiest of Japan's "Three Holy Mountains."
Every summer, thousands of pilgrims and tourists climb to the summit,
many of them hiking throughout the night to witness the sunrise
from the summit.
