About Fujiyoshida
Fujiyoshida is the place where you can get the most beautiful views of Mount Fuji, which, now a World Heritage Site, is truly a symbol of Japan. Just less than one hour from Tokyo, it is a great place to visit, and is proud of its position as the water capital of Japan, providing the greatest volume of mineral water shipments in the country. They even get mineral water out of their taps!
Also, at an altitude of 1,000 meters above sea level, the air is always clear, and the spectacular stars in the sky feel like they could draw you in. In Fujiyoshida, where the water is clean, the air is clean, and the people’s hearts are clean, the people are always hospitable, greeting visitors with a smile, and is a wonderful place to visit and take home some souvenirs.
