The Fuji Five Lakes area, with Mt. Fuji as the centerpiece, is one of Japan’s most popular tourist destinations.
Mt. Fuji plays an important role in the Japanese religion Shinto, which worships about six million gods, among them the Sun
Goddess Amaterasu. Part of the Sun Goddess worship is observing sunrise from the top of a hill, and as the highest mountain
in Japan at 3,776 meters (12,300 ft), Mt. Fuji is best suited for this purpose. Every year Japanese from ages 6 to over 60
make the religious pilgrimage to the top of Mt. Fuji, which is actually a dormant volcano that last erupted in 1707. A Japanese
saying goes, "If you never climb Mt. Fuji, you are a fool, and if you climb it more than once you are a fool."
