Tagoyama Fujizuka Shiki

Historical mini Fuji

Fujizuka are a mini mount Fuji, there are dozens of them around the Kanto plain. I had no idea there was one in Shiki until I accidentally stumbled upon it. And later learned it is considered one of the most exceptional and is a designated tangible folk cultural asset. In order to officially be deemed a 'Fujizuka' certain criteria have to be met. For example, you have to be able to salute Mt Fuji from the top. Which you can do at this one, but you are only allowed to climb to the top on select dates in the year.
