Mount Fuji is located in the south-central part of Japan's main island of Honshu, approximately 80 kilometers east of Tokyo, between Shizuoka and Yamanashi prefectures.

The foothills are located in the big trench zone between Suruga Bay and Seyuchuan. It is 3775.63 meters high, 125 kilometers around the base of the mountain, and covers an area of about 1200 square kilometers.

Mount Fuji is one of the classic symbols of Japanese spirit and culture. In the heart of the Japanese people is a natural charm, the beautiful, solemn sacred mountain. Mount Fuji is a conical mountain with perennial snow on its summit. Around the foothills of Mount Fuji, there are five freshwater lakes.

Mount Fuji is rated as one of the three spirit mountains in Japan. It is called Furong Peak or Fu Yue and is the "perfect High Mountain". In February 1936, it was designated as Fuji Hakone Izu National Park. In June 2013, it was inscribed on the World Cultural Heritage List by the 37th World Heritage Committee as "Mount Fuji - Sacred Place and source of artistic enlightenment".

Mount Fuji is one of the important symbols of Japan. Mount Fuji is the highest mountain in Japan. It is a proud symbol of the Japanese nation. Mount Fuji is high in the clouds, the peak of the snow, like a hanging upside-down fan.

In 2013, the UNESCO World Heritage Committee approved Mount Fuji as a cultural heritage on the World Heritage List.

Mount Fuji rises above seas and lakes surrounded by villages and trees. Its beauty has long been a target for pilgrims and has inspired artists and poets. The heritage includes 25 sites that reflect the essence of Mount Opuket's sacred and artistic landscape.

Its representation in Japanese art dates back to the 11th century, but 19th-century woodcut prints of landscapes, including those of pine forests on sandy beaches, made Mount Fuji an internationally recognized Japanese icon and profoundly influenced the development of Western art.

In August 2002, the height was confirmed to be 3,775.63 meters after being remeasured by the Japanese Institute of Territorial Geography. It is located near the Pacific Ocean, about 100 kilometers southwest of Tokyo. The volume of Mount Fuji is about 500km³. Mt. Fuji has a circumference of 125 kilometers and a diameter of 40 to 50 kilometers at the base. The surface of the crater at the top of the mountain is about 500 meters in diameter and about 250 meters deep.

Mount Fuji is part of the Fuji Ring of Fire, a chain of volcanoes that runs from the Mariana Islands through the Izu Islands and the Izu Peninsula to northern Honshu.

Mount Fuji is a natural botanical garden, with more than 2,000 species of plants, which are distributed vertically. Below 500 m above sea level is subtropical evergreen forest, 500 ~ 2000 m temperate deciduous broadleaved forest. 2000 ~ 2600 meters is the cold temperate coniferous forest, 2600 meters above the alpine and dwarf forest belt. There are two craters of different sizes on the top of the mountain, and there is snow all year round.

Although the effects of past volcanic activity on vegetation can be seen in some places, the vegetation distribution of Mount Fuji mainly reflects the temperature gradient with height. Areas higher than 1,500 meters above sea level lack dense vegetation and are considered volcanic deserts, while lower elevations are dominated by virgin forests.

Mount Fuji is one of the largest active volcanoes in the world and is currently dormant. The crater at the top of Mount Fuji has erupted 18 times, with the most recent eruption occurring in 1707. April is the first good time to see Mt. Fuji, as the cherry blossoms near its estuary lake usually bloom in early April and last until the end of the month. July and August are the best months to climb Mount Fuji, but the mountain is closed for most of the rest of the year. October and November are good times to see the maple leaves on Mount Fuji.
