Wakutamaike Pond
A bubbling spring located on the grounds of the Fujisan Hongu Sengen Taisha Shrine. From a crack in the lava nearly 200 thousand tons of water gush out daily from the subterranean waters under Mt. Fuji. Because of the high transparency of crystal clear water, it looks like there's no water at all when viewed from certain angles. The water, which maintains a temperature near 13 degrees Celsius throughout the year, was once used for purification ceremonies by climbers of Mt. Fuji. It is one of the only two registered National Special Natural Monuments in the prefecture.
