Visiting Mt Fujiyama in Japan has been on my “Must-See” destination list for a long time, so I was delighted when I was able to arrange a 2 day visit to Tokyo that included a tour to Mt. Fuji as well.
Day 1 – Full of sightseeing and walking in Tokyo led by Mr. Sato. Our first stop was at Japan’s most famous Shinto shrine dedicated to the Emperor Meji and his consort. Surrounded by gardens and filled with trees donated by the people of Japan, this tranquil setting was a breath of fresh air in the midst of a desnsely populated city. Ema (votive tablets) were available to write prayer supplications on along with racks filled with sacred offerings of Sake.
