The mountain is located in Honshu – Japan’s largest island and is just about 100 Kms away from the capital city of Japan – Tokyo. In fact, if you were present in Tokyo on a clear day, you would easily spot the mountain! Mt. Fuji is surrounded by five beautiful lakes – Lake Kawaguchiko, Lake Yamanakako, Lake Saiko, Lake Motosuko and Lake Shojiko. All of the lakes give a wonderful view of the mountain.
