Mt. Fuji
Prize for stupidity commemorates “those who improve our gene pool — by removing themselves from it in the most spectacular way possible”.
No one is climbing Mt. Fuji this year, but everyone can recreate the symbol of Japan in their home.
Both prefectures that border Japan’s tallest mountain say that hiking trails will remain closed throughout the summer, politician suggests writing haiku poems instead.
Famous sites like Ueno Park and Sensoji temple look amazingly like they do today, but the people look entirely different.
Photographer stretches out the life of fireworks, shows the beauty of the stars and Mt. Fuji too.
This unique Awakumo glass will let you recreate your very own view of Mt. Fuji in miniature while enjoying a frothy glass of beer!
What better way to celebrate the New Year than with a lovely cake in the shape of Mt. Fuji decorated with Japanese symbols of good fortune?
