Aside from providing a beautiful vista of our beloved Mt Fuji, Oshino Hakkai in Yamanashi Prefecture was once a major part of Mt Fuji worship. Pilgrims would purify themselves in the surrounding mineral-rich ponds before climbing the mountain. 🗻 Today, visitors still flock to the region to enjoy the eight beautiful ponds and of course, a glimpse of Mt Fuji – an iconic scene in every season! ❄️
