Beautifully restored area. The old house that is now a cafe was wonderful

So worth it for 400 Yen. Definitely recommend for anyone to visit prior to Mt Fuji hike to get an appreciation of the history and ritual of the mountain. The VR movie is not to be missed. They have free audio headsets in English, Chinese and Thai.

I was walking towards Yamanaka Lake from Kitaguchi Sengen shrine so this was a good stop to learn more about Mount Fuji. A lot of the information is in Japanese but there’s English translations for some of the showcases. There’s a video telling about Konohanasakuya and the Fire Festival. Finally there’s a projection mapping video (they call it VR) near the entrance running every 15th and 45th minute. I think it was really well done and I was inspired to climb Mount Fuji. The staff was also kind and let me speak in Japanese which I’m still learning. She also noticeably slowed down her speech so that I can follow. Entrance fee for 400 yen for adult and 200 yen for children.

There is no many history about Fuji. They basically mention about the fire festival, etc. I was expecting more to be Fujisan Museum

Last week we visited the Mt. Fuji Museum with my family. It was very interesting to see the history and mysticism that surrounds Fuji. They have displays that show how going to the top of the mountain has been a religious experience for centuries. The museum itself was small but very informative. I never had an interest to hike to the top... but after going to the museum, I just may do it. To top it off... the best part of the museum was the breathtaking view. I would definitely recommend this museum to anyone who happens to be in the area.
