As an outsider from another galaxy, I am always fascinated by the enormity of nature. My sensors registered that Mount Fuji stands at the height of 3,776.24 metres (12,389 feet). It is an active volcano which last erupted in 1707. Its cone-shaped symmetrical spellbinding beauty is the highest peak in Japan. Surrounded by five distinctive lumps of rock, lakes and lush green forests; Mount White has been designated as a "World Heritage Site"by UNESCO since 2013. The sight was breathtaking and fascinating at the same time and sparked curiosity to know more about nature on Earth.
