Officially named Kitaguchi Hongū Fuji Sengen Jinja, the Fujiyoshida Sengen Shrine or Fuji Sengen Shrine is dedicated to the Princess Konohanasakuya. It is a Shinto shrine mainly associated with Mount Fuji and, according to the Shrine officials, has over 1,000 “sister” shrines all across Japan.
Located in a dense forest at the foot of Mt Fuji, the Fujiyoshida Sengen Shrine used to be the starting point for climbing Mount Fuji from the north, with its trail still located behind the right side of the shrine’s main hall and visible at the end of our video.
