Most of Japan is covered by mountains, but the highest mountain in Japan, which is located in Honshu Island, is Mount Fuji. It is 3,776 meters high, which is approximately 12,388 feet and is one of the most visited places in Japan. The mountain looks like a perfect cone, and its top is covered in snow for several months a year. It is surrounded by five lakes and four small cities.
Mount Fuji is part of Japan's "Three Holy Mountains," the other two being Mount Haku and Mount Tateyama. In Japan, Mount Fuji has been the source of inspiration for poets, painters, and other artists for generations. The representation of Mount Fuji in art can be traced back to the 11th century. In 2013, Mount Fuji was added to the World Heritage Sites list. The sites that are added to this list are of historical, scientific, or cultural importance.
