Before you hop on the bus, let us share some essential knowledge to make your Mt. Fuji experience even deeper and more meaningful! How big is Mt. Fuji? It’s famous for being Japan’s highest peak, but do you know the unique ways Japanese people measure its size? Actually, we love comparing landmarks to famous buildings and stadiums.
Mt. Fuji stands at 3,776 meters tall. That is equivalent to an 899-story building! It is about 11.4 times taller than Japan’s highest building, the Azabudai Hills Mori JP Tower.
Whenever Japanese media measures volume, they always use “Tokyo Dome.” Mt. Fuji’s volume is roughly 1.1 million Tokyo Domes! By the way, does your country have a standard comparison, like “soccer fields”?
Experience the massive scale of Mt. Fuji for yourself!
The summit stays below freezing for most of the year. With an average temperature of -6°C, it is an environment similar to the Arctic Circle. Even in mid-summer, the summit feels as cold as winter at ground level.
Every year, 200,000 people climb the mountain, and 30 million people visit the surrounding area. Witnessing this scale from the 5th Station is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Our professional guides will show you the best spots to capture the true scale of Mt. Fuji in your photos.
