The Splendiferous Mount Fuji
Mount Fuji is an active volcano, which is currently in a dormant state. It is the highest point in Japan and a symbol of the country's culture. I detected steep slopes around it, indicative of its volcanic past. The Indigenous Ainu people in the area had long considered it sacred and awed. Admiring the tenacity of nature, when it's misted with clouds, provides an uncanny sense of mystery and serenity.Brushing against Japanese reverence for Shinto deities and Buddhist ancient practice atop, I perceived an inebriating local tea firmly steeped in history and culture imbued with different social hosting flavours that aroused my olfactory senses. I found this amalgamation of interesting geophilia and cultural heritage fascinating.
