At 3776m, Mt.Fuji is the highest peak in Japan. It is the most sacred mountain in Japan and is registered as a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site from the perspective of being an object of worship and a source of art.

It is internationally recognized not only for its natural beauty and value as a famous mountain, but also for the Japanese people's faith in Mt. Fuji and its value as a source of art born from Mt. It has been the subject of many works of art since ancient times, and "Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji" by Hokusai Katsushika, an ukiyo-e artist, is world-famous.

Geisha liven up parties with traditional Japanese performing arts such as dancing and shamisen, and their origins date back to the Edo period. At that time, the word geisha meant "a performer", and originally the role of the men was to liven up the tatami room by playing the shamisen with flowers and tea. At some point, women started playing geisha, and it became mainstream.

Yamanashi is a treasure trove of gourmet food, including vegetables grown in the spring water of Mt. Fuji, branded meats such as Koshu wine beef and Koshu Fujizakura pork, as well as seasonal vegetables, mountain vegetables, mushrooms, and other seasonal delicacies from the mountains.

In addition, Yamanashi Prefecture is Japan's proud wine production area. It is the prefecture where Japan's first winery was born in the Meiji era, and now boasts an overwhelming number of wineries in the country.

You can enjoy a slightly luxurious trip by tasting Yamanashi wine while looking at the beautiful Mt. Fuji.
