Arakura Fuji Sengen Shrine

#japantrip While we tackled the steep stairs, the concrete path provided ease, especially for families with strollers. Luck was on our side as we were greeted by the magnificent sight of Mt. Fuji in all its glory. Despite the weekend rush, the crowds were manageable, allowing us to snap some incredible photos by the shrine. Being so close to Mt. Fuji left us in absolute awe. Parking was free and there were attendants everywhere directing tourists to the parking spots and the trail.
