A cenotaph (memorial tower) for people from Fujiyoshida City who died in major wars, including the Sino-Japanese War, Russo-Japanese War, World War I, and the Pacific War. Construction was completed in April 1962.
Arakurayama Sengen Park is not just a viewpoint, it’s a carefully layered landscape where history, spirituality, city life, and nature intersect in one frame. Located in Fujiyoshida City, Yamanashi Prefecture, the park is internationally recognised for its postcard-perfect composition: Chureito Pagoda in the foreground, Mt. Fuji behind it, and the town of Fujiyoshida spread out below.







It’s not just a pagoda — it’s a postcard come to life. With Mt. Fuji towering in the background, this five-storied beauty sits high on a hill overlooking the city of Fujiyoshida. It's both a war memorial and one of Japan's most iconic photo spots. Trust us — it's worth the climb.
Yes! Most Chureito Pagoda day tours include round-trip transport by bus or van from central Tokyo. It’s hassle-free and perfect if you want to sit back, soak in the views, and leave the logistics to someone else.
You're in for more than just the pagoda. Many tours also include Lake Kawaguchi, Oshino Hakkai village, Gotemba Premium Outlets, or seasonal flower parks. It’s like checking off your entire Mount Fuji bucket list in one go.
Expect a full-day adventure — around 10–11 hours from pickup to drop-off. That gives you enough time to take in all the sights, enjoy a local lunch, and still get back to Tokyo by evening.
Spring and autumn steal the show! Visit in mid-April for the cherry blossoms or early November for fiery fall colors. For crowd-free views, aim for early morning departures.
There are about 398 steps, so wear comfy shoes and take it slow. The view from the top? Absolutely worth every step.
There’s a paved path partway, but the final section involves stairs. While full accessibility is limited, the nearby Arakurayama Sengen Shrine still offers lovely views without the full climb.
Dress in layers, wear walking shoes, and bring a light jacket — even in summer. The weather near Mt. Fuji can change fast, and it’s cooler up in the mountains.

Experience Mount Fuji’s icons — from postcard viewpoints to hidden gems, with local experts and seamless travel.
