A vast primeval forest at the foot of Mt. Fuji formed on lava from an eruption 1,200 years ago. Inside, you see a mystical green world of giant trees clinging to lava and deep moss. While legends say compasses fail here, there are well-maintained paths for forest bathing. Exploring "Lava Caves" created by volcanic activity with professional guides is popular among nature lovers seeking the Earth's breath and unique ecosystem.
