(part of Mt.Fuji World Heritage)

We can provide chartered (van)taxi, mucro bus

Located  in Fujinomiya City Shizuoka Prefecture.

This shrine is well known as the headquarters for over 1,300 

Sengen shrines in Japan.

(originally built in 9th century for the protection from 

volcanic eruptions.)

I took this photo in March,2017.

Our guests from China in March, 2017.

Welcome to Fujinomiya!

Many Japanese people venerate this shrine as a guardian deity

 for disaster prevention, easy childbirth, navigation, fishing, agriculture, 

and weaving. 

Tokugawa Ieyasu, who established the Edo shogunate

 in the 17th century  built the present main shrine in 1604.

The shrine is also a traditional starting point of Mt.Fuji.

Ancient people washed their bodies here before climbing Mt.Fuji.

Please  enjoy the very clean water of Mt.Fuji!

This river flows vigorously.

More fun at Fujinomiya Hongu Sengen Shrine.

Omiya Yokocho

This is a local food court area near the shrine.

Fujinomiya yakisoba is the most popular food here!

(fried noodles)

Many Japanese visit Fujinomiya Sengen Shrine and after that,

enjoy local foods.

Fujinomiya yakisoba was awarded the 1st prize of local foods

in Japan! 　Please try it!

Please enjoy your stay at Fujinomiya!

We are looking forward to meeting you!

Thank you!

Customers' Voice #5 / Shizuoka private tour

Dear Hirokane,

Thank you very much for your kind arrangements.  

The shrimp senbei shop is very good, my children had so much fun trying the different senbei and we ended up buying a few packets.  They also provided free coffee and tea!

Tokino Sumika was really beautiful and it is good we went there instead of Snow Town since Snow Town might be too cold for my younger boy.

Pls do help us to thank Mr Mori, the Japanese restaurant that he brought us to was very good.  

Lastly, we would like to thank you once again for all the coordination and help.  

Wishing you and your family a beautiful and joyful 2017!

Best regards,

(Our guests from Singapore. Thank you.)
