Township and Culture Ecotour in Fujinomiya
Fujinomiya City is the gateway to Mt. Fuji with the main Sengen shrine which was built for the sole purpose of worshiping and showing respect to this iconic mountain.
This shrine has a history of over 2000 years and was designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

At the end of the tour, enjoy Shizuoka green tea made with Mt Fuji’s crystal clear water and learn the art of pouring the perfect cup of ‘Ocha’ and enjoy a relaxing cup of tea with the wagashi you just made.
With group numbers limited to a maximum of 10 people, you can enjoy a more intimate experience and gain a deeper understand of the cultural beauty surrounding Mt. Fuji.
