#3 Mount Fuji, Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan

Yoohoo! So finally, one of the most beautiful attraction, the mount Fuji! We came! :)  Fujisan, highest mountain in Japan with 1766m height, an active volcano last erupted in 1706. It is located in the center of Japan, it can be almost see elsewhere :D

So actually before we came to Japan, we just heard from the management of PFSAP, saying that the weather in Kofu is cold and dry and it is located near Mt.Fuji. Well, gladly to say that yay, finally ah! A closer look. :) Because that period is turning winter. Therefore it is all about snow and ice on the mountain top. So it

*We actually told that if we are lucky, we might have the opportunity to go up onto the half of the mountain. But unfortunately... Well, guess that we should be glad that at least have a once a lifetime opportunity to go there? in a positive way :O


I have posted all this photos in Facebook, but I will just put all this again as a backup :) Hmm, there are pretty much photos the same, but I just feel like posting them all!
:)))

It took us an hour there.

Actually I felt that this mountain can be seen anywhere, as it is just located at the center of Japan. So, I just capture the beautiful moments no matter wherever I am when I am on the way there. ><

So this is the tunnel when we are approaching there.

There are actually some marathon session going on.

Isn't it beautiful? =) Kawaguchiko lake.

Ohaiyo!

Happy kids with happy face. :)

Okay, this is the sad part. This is the path that we should go up.But the weather doesn't allow us to do so. Thus, our initial plan to go half the mountain up gone. Excitement loss. D:

So we changed out plan to visit this Narusawa Mount Fuji Museum. It is located at the foot of Mount Fuji. It has a tree mold of Special Natural Monument at the entrance of the knowledge and interest of Mt Fuji.
History, lava and stones.

There are so many gems, precious stones, quartz in this museum display.

Outside the museum.

This is the exact image of the 1000 yen note. :)

Too bad the poor visibility and the cloud blocked the view of the mountain.

and this is one of the five beautiful lakes around Mt.Fuji. Fujigoko.

Lake Motosoko

Self capture aka selca :D *and I love this hot pink Adidas Winter Jacket present by my cousin for my 2013 advance birthday pressie. Love ya :D <3

I realised that most of the people love to put *the scissors* post so so much! including me, a change maybe. Anyway, just a random thought :x

Our trainer, Mr Ito who brought us here. :) Being so kind and nice to bring us around to explore this beautiful place :)

Candid shot?! =))

Dont get it wrong. This wasnt taken by me. It is just the picture beside the map o.0 As shown in the picture  below. Get it?

SO it is our meal time! :)

Isn't a good thing to wear so much ah? Because it is quite troublesome

A small fortune thingy to let our time pass. Something good about our future. You just need to pay 200 yen to try it :)

And there is my meal. Udon with Shitake. <3

Purely water from the mountain.

So our half day exploring that area ended in a blink. Nice experience tho.

Have the chance to go there again? Who knows? :D

Till Then,

Xoxo
