Meet Japan's Super Mountain!

Mount Fuji is a super tall mountain in Japan, so tall it's like 3 Eiffel Towers stacked up! It's actually a volcano, but it's been sleeping for a very long time. Its shape is like a perfect ice cream cone, and for about half the year, its top is covered in fluffy white snow. It's so special that people think of it as a magical, holy place.

A Mountain That Paints Pictures!

Mount Fuji is like a famous movie star that artists love to draw and paint. It's been in pictures for hundreds of years! People also love to visit it.

It's like a friendly giant watching over the land.

When Did This Giant Wake Up?

This giant mountain is super old! It's been around for thousands and thousands of years. The last time it really woke up and showed its power was a super long time ago, between 1707 and 1708.
