Japan is called the land of the rising sun. Being the first country in the east, this country has been given such a name. Many tourists visiting this country for the first time are surprised to know the rich history of this small country in Asia. Thousands of years of history are involved with this country. Japan's Shinto and Buddhist temples have been famous since long before Europe's fascinating cathedrals were built. At the same time, the country is ahead in terms of skills and trade. After thousands of years of war and natural disasters, Japan's traditional monuments are still preserved, and some have been restored. Undoubtedly the trip to Japan is one of the most memorable travel experiences for anyone. Some of the best patterns of sunrise in the country were highlighted.1. Mount Fuji is undoubtedly the most famous landmark in Japan. At 3.8 meters, it is the highest mountain in Japan. It is so high that it can be seen from Tokyo, 100 kilometers away. For hundreds of years, Mount Fuji has been considered the art inspiration. That is why in 2013 UNESCO gave it the status of World Cultural Significance. About a million tourists climb Mount Fuji every summer, part of Fuji-Hakon-Yu National Park.
2. Climbing to the top is considered as part of the pilgrimage and ends with watching the sunrise from the top of the mountain. Although some of the climbers start from the base of the mountain, most of the climbers start from the fifth station in the middle of the mountain. It takes about six hours to start the journey from Fifth Station and climb to the top of the mountain. Of course, for many, the view from up close or through the window of a fast train is more than enough to climb.
