Congratulations to Mt. Fuji being added as a World Heritage site!

UNESCO to formally add Mt Fuji as World Heritage site this week


Mt. Fuji covers approx. 70,000 hectares in Yamanashi and Shizuoka prefectures.The area Mt Fuji covers includes the five lakes region [Lake Kawaguchi (河口湖 Kawaguchi-ko), Lake Motosu (本栖湖 Motosu-ko), Lake Saiko (西湖 Sai-ko), Lake Shoji (精進湖 Shōji-ko), and Lake Yamanaka (山中湖 Yamanaka-ko)], Fuji-Q Highland [(富士急ハイランド Fujikyū Hairando)], Village of Healing [(いやしの里 iyashinosato)]. including the Otodome Falls [(音止めの滝 Otodome-no-taki)] and the Shiraito Falls [(白糸の滝 Shiraito-no-taki)].

At the UNESCO meeting, they are suggesting Mt. Fuji might be listed as a “cultural” heritage site, rather than a “natural” heritage site.



One of my favorite mountains, Mt. Fuji, gets recognized. This mosaic shows my memories of Mt Fuji as it appears at different seasons.
