much more to do in the region surrounding this great mountain, so here are our

但周圍的地區其實還有更多的事情可以做

Top 5 recommendations for Mt Fuji.

以下是我們的五大建議

Number Five: Sengen Shrines

第五：淺間神社

Shinto is the indigenous religion in Japan and Shinto shrines are dedicated to the worship

神道是日本本土宗教而神社是所供參拜的地方

of various deities or “kami” and can be found in nearly every town across the nation.

全國各地幾乎每個鎮會發現各種神靈或“神明”

Among several popular types of Shinto shrines, the Fuji Sengen shrines are a collection of

幾種受歡迎的神社中, 淺間神社

over 1300 shrines all over the country that worship Mount Fuji and the deity associated

是全國1300間供奉富士山與山相關的神明

with the mountain, Princess Konohanasakuya.

包括木花咲耶姫

The head shrine of the 1300+ Sengen shrines is the Fujisan Sengen Shrine which is located

富士淺間神社為日本全國1,300處淺間神社的總本宮

in Fujinomiya city, at the southwestern base of Mt. Fuji.

位於富士山西南方的富士宮市

The shrine has a history of over 1000 years, but most of the shrine's current buildings

神社已有1000多年歷史但目前大部分的建築

were built by Tokugawa Ieyasu in the early 1600s.

是在17世紀初由德川家康建成

Historically, the Fujisan Sengen Shrine was the entrance point for the climb up Mount Fuji

本來富士山淺間神社是位於富士山攀登入口處

However when the nation's center of political power shifted from Kyoto to Edo (now Tokyo)

但國家的政治中心從京都轉移到江戶（現東京）後

the northern trail up Mt. Fuji was easier to access and eventually became the most popular route.

富士北徑的山腳更易到達， 最終成為最受歡迎的攀爬路線

The Fujiyoshida Sengen Shrine on the north side of the mountain was the original starting

北側的富士吉田市淺間神社吉田徑是原來的起點

point for the Yoshida trail and is still used by a small number of purist hikers today,

目前仍有少數遠足人士使用

but a majority of climbers now chose to start climbing at the Fuji Subaru Line 5th Station,

但大多數登山者已選擇富士昴線五站作起點

which leads to the Yoshida trail up the mountain.

然後中途再連接吉田徑上山頂

Many other smaller sengen shrines can be found around Mt. Fuji including the Arakura Sengen Shrine

許多其他較小的淺間神社可以在富士山周圍發現 包括新倉山淺間神社

which is famous for the Chureito pagoda and breathtaking view of Mt. Fuji

新倉山淺間神社有著名的忠靈塔 和富士山的美景

Which is especially enhanced by the sakura blossoms during spring and fall foliage in autumn.

尤其在櫻花盛開及紅葉期

Number Four: Fuji-Q Highland

第四：富士急樂園

premiere thrill ride destination and is home to multiple world record breaking roller coasters,

Eejanaika which has 14 inversions,

滾輪式過山車“Eejanaika”總旋轉數有14回

Number Three: Itchiku Kubota Art Museum

第三：久保田一竹美術館

The Itchiku Kubota Art Museum is located along the north side of Lake Kawaguchiko and showcases

久保田一竹美術館位於河口湖北側

更簡單的方法取代

茶室以及由沖繩的珊瑚和石灰建成的建築物

Number Two: Climb Mount Fuji

第二：攀登富士山

Of course, climbing Mt.Fuji is one of the most common ways of experiencing the mountain.

當然，攀登富士山是體驗山的最直接方法

Like other Japanese mountains, Mt Fuji is divided into 10 stations.

像其他的山脈一樣，富士山分為10個站

Although it is possible to hike from the base of the mountain all the way to the 10th station

儘管可以從第一站開始一氣爬到山頂的第十站

at the summit, by far the most common starting point for nearly everyone is at the 5th station

但幾乎大多數人會從半山腰

about halfway up the mountain.

的第5站開始

On the popular trails, there are mountain huts where hikers can seek shelter, pay to

在受歡迎的的小徑上有山木屋 遠足人士可以尋求庇護，付費

use the restroom, buy food, and even sleep.

上廁所，購買食物，甚至渡宿

There are four main trails to choose from: the Yoshida, Fujinomiya, Subashiri, and Gotemba.

四個主要路徑為： 吉田，富士宮，須走，和禦殿場。

The most popular by far being the Yoshida whose 5th station has the most shopping options and

最受歡迎的吉田徑第五站有最多選擇的物品購買

is accessible by direct bus from the widest variety of locations, including downtown Tokyo

可以從多個地方乘坐巴士直達，包括從東京市中心

Trails and mountain facilities are only open during the official Fuji climbing season which

山徑和山上設施僅在正式的攀登季節開放

is generally from Early July to mid September when the trails are free of snow.

一般是從7月初至九月中旬 當小徑沒有積雪時

Outside of this period during the off season, hiking is not recommended due to extreme weather

在此期間以外的淡季，因極端天氣不建議登山

and an elevated risk of rock slides and avalanches.

有岩石塌下和雪崩的高風險

However during peak climbing season, especially in mid August, there will be large numbers

在旺季特別是在八月中旬，

of people on the trails.

有大群遠足人士

The recommended method is to hike from the 5th station to the 7th or 8th station on the

推薦的方法是第一天從第5站往第7或第8站

first day, sleep for several hours in a mountain hut which should be reserved ahead of time,

在山小屋睡幾個小時,要提前預約

and then continue to the summit to view the sunrise.

然後繼續到山頂觀賞日出

When attempting to climb Fuji, make sure to be properly equipped for a range of temperatures,

出發前確保配備應付溫差大的衣物

wear sturdy footgear, and pack plenty water and food.

穿著堅固的爬山鞋，並帶備大量的水和食物

Also, to avoid altitude sickness climb slowly, stay hydrated, and take frequent breaks.

另外為了避免高原反應，請緩慢爬升， 攝取足夠水分，注意經常休息

Number One: View Mt Fuji

第一：看富士山

In our opinion, the best way to experience Mt. Fuji

我們認為，最好體驗富士山的方法

is simply to take in it's awe inspiring natural beauty.

僅僅是欣賞它令人振奮的自然美景

Throughout the ages, artists have been moved by its form and size; creating countless works

古往今來，藝術家們被它的形狀和大小所感動

showing the mountain from every angle, in all conditions and in each season.

創造了無數的作品來展示在各季節， 各角度及各情況下的山峰

While climbing Fuji is an unforgettable experience

雖然攀登富士山是難忘的經歷

it does not offer the best view of the mountain itself.

但並看不到山的最佳景致

It is debatable which scenic spot is in fact top of the list, but here are some of the

哪處是觀看富士最佳的地點實際上是有爭議的

standout locations to view Mount Fuji from:

但以下一些地方是觀看富士山的好地方：

The northern shore of Lake Kawaguchiko

河口湖北岸

Shizuoka City

靜岡市

the Bunkyo Civic Center in Tokyo

東京文京市民中心

with the shinkansen

與新幹線

Inside the shinkansen

新幹線內

An airplane

飛機上

Lake Ashinoko in Hakone

箱根蘆之湖

the Chureito Pagoda

忠靈塔

the Fuji Shibazakura Festival

富士芝櫻祭

Izu Peninsula with the ocean in between

一海隔着的伊豆半島

an onsen around the Fuji Five Lakes region

富士五湖地區的溫泉

ski slopes such as found at the Fujiten Snow Resort

滑雪場如Fujiten滑雪場

a golf course

高爾夫球場

and many more...

還有很多...

As for the best season to view Mt. Fuji, they each have their charms.

至於最佳的季節，其實各有魅力

In the fall during koyo season

如紅葉期

the golden tones of autumn highlight the surrounding mountains beautifully.

秋天的金色色調突顯了周圍的山脈

In the spring, cherry blossoms make an excellent frame for the mountain

在春天，櫻花成為富士山美麗的框架

and in winter Fuji's trademark white snow cap makes a majestic crown.

冬季富士的白帽使其為雄偉的皇冠

However during the summer, although the Fuji Five Lakes Region will be green and lush

在夏季然而，儘管富士五湖是綠蔥蔥

the humidity, clouds, and occasional typhoons often block Mt. Fuji

潮濕多雲和偶爾的颱風通常會遮擋富士山

making it the hardest season to get a great view.

使夏季為最難看到富士美景的季節

We hope this Top 5 list gives you a good place to start when planning your trip to the Fuji area.

希望這五個名單能幫助您計劃好愉快的旅程
