What makes Shiraito Falls and Mt. Fuji Heritage Centre /C-G a unique experience ?
Two waterfalls are visited. Shiraito Falls has been selected as one of the top 100 waterfalls in Japan. It is a constituent property because it was a place of pilgrimage and training for people, mainly Fuji-ko followers. The waterfall is 20 m high and 150 m wide, with many small waterfalls cascading down, looking like many white threads hanging down.
The head shrine of the 1300-odd Sengen shrines in Japan. It is the oldest shrine in the Tokai region and the first shrine in Suruga Province (formerly a government mintage shrine).
Fuji and the deity is Konohana-no-Sakuyahime no Mikoto (also known as Asama-no-Ookami).
The main shrine, built by Ieyasu Tokugawa, is a national important cultural property, while Yushitama-ike Pond, made of melted snow from Mt Fuji, which gushes into the grounds, is a national special natural monument.
The building is made in the shape of a rail track as if it were a simulated experience of climbing Mt Fuji. The wall surface changes as you climb up the slope, and silhouettes of climbers and animals appear, making it a fun and educational experience.
Climbing a mountain is a strenuous and demanding activity, but even those with limited mobility and small children can enjoy the experience together. On fine days, the top floor offers a view of Mt Fuji.
