What other travelers are saying about Fujisan Hongu Sengen Taisha Shrine
Local shinto shrine with many local visitors. Not many tourist here as its not on the main tourist route. There is a small pond spring next to the shrine. Its was surprising nice to see such clear water spring with local fishes. Peaceful and nice if you have sometime to make a detour here. We drove here and paid parking is just next to the shrine.
A holy place to visit while in Fujinomiya. At the entrance is a large Tori gate, walking further you’ll see the temple and some people offering prayers so be mindful when taking pictures. There is also a small lake just nearby.
Very pretty shrine during cherry blossom season, and wide spaces for walking. There is a pond where people prepare themselves for their hike up moun Fuji, so it was interesting to see the locals interact with it here
Great place to experience the temple ambiance near Mt. Fuji. The temple is very picturesque. I would say the whole experience was typical as with other temples. The place is quiet, good for praying and contemplation. The colors in winter are very muted accented with the orange color of most of the temple buildings.
Fujisan Hongu Sengen Taisha is a truly stunning shrine with beautifully maintained architecture that reflects its long and rich history. The area is spacious, offering plenty of different corners to explore. A wonderful place to visit.
