About Kawaguchi-ko

A good starting point to hike up Mt Fuji during the appropriate season, it's also a nice relaxing town, with a few forest walks and a good cultural overview of small-town Japan.

User's opinion
Fujiyama, Mount Fuji, Fuji San... Please, do not believe we say "Fuji San" like it's the honorific title we use to talk to people. it just means "mountain", like "Yama", and is the Japanese pronunciation to the Chinese "Shan" > 山
