Fuji—is a legendary symbol of japan, and for good reason.
This opens in a new window. As cliche as it may sound, watching the sunrise from one of the iconic sites of the land of the rising sun itself is definitely one of the best although the mountain peak is open to hikers from july 1 to early september, the best time to climb is from the end of july to late august. Mount fuji isn't always visible from tokyo and even if you stay for a week, weather and season might have it hide behind clouds the entire time. You can climb in one day if you're fit.
