Mount Fuji, Honshu Island (Japan)

Honshu, historically called Hondo, is the largest and most populous main island of Japan. It is located south of Hokkaidō across the Tsugaru Strait, north of Shikoku across the Inland Sea, and northeast of Kyūshū across the Kanmon Straits. The island separates the Sea of Japan, which lies to its north and west, from the North Pacific Ocean to the south and east. It is the seventh-largest island in the world, and the second-most populous after the Indonesian island of Java.
Honshu had a population of 104 million as of 2017, constituting 81.3% of the entire population of Japan, and is mostly concentrated in the coastal areas and plains. Approximately 30% of the total population resides in the Greater Tokyo Area on the Kantō Plain. As the historical center of Japanese cultural and political power,the island includes several past Japanese capitals, including Kyōto, Nara and Kamakura. Much of the island’s southern shore forms part of the Taiheiyō Belt, a megalopolis that spans several of the Japanese islands. Honshu contains Japan’s highest mountain, Mount Fuji, and its largest lake, Lake Biwa. Source: Wikipedia
Linking up with a bunch of fantastic peeps from the blogosphere who host Wordless Wednesday – Betty, Steve, image-in-ing, Zina, Keith, Cathy, Sara, CatSynth, Diana, and Suzana.
Wow! Very nice picture!
A place I would love to visit, Gigi. Thanks for linking up. 🙂
I agree. My wild imagination has my elder self running some remote ryokan for English speaking visitors. Crazy, huh?
Best wishes!
Stunning!
Indeed. Scritches to Goddess Athena. 🙂
It’s beautiful. Love the blossoms on that tree
Spring and winter in one shot. 🙂
What a stunning photo!
I thought so too, Miss Molly. 🙂
What a beautiful capture 🙂
Have a mountainoustastic week and WWS 👍
I agree with you, Steve. Have a great Wordless Wednesday. 🙂
WOW! A postcard-perfect capture!
Happy Weds, Sandee!
It is indeed, Veronica. Happy Wednesday to you too. 🙂
What a breathtaking picture. Thanks for hosting. Have a great day.
It sure is. Someone know how to use their camera. 🙂
Beautiful photo of the iconic Mount Fuji. Lovely blossom too.
It’s iconic indeed. Happy day, my friend. 🙂
Love the mountain in snow with the cherry blossom in the foreground. Mom has seen Mt Fuji many times when she used to be in Japan on layovers as a flight attendant, way before any of us were born.
It’s spring and winter rolled into one photograph. Oh you were a flight attendant. How wonderful for you. 🙂
None of us knew any of this, or that Mount Fuji could be covered in snow. Wow. We need to get out more. XOX Lucy, Xena and Chia
I need to get our more too. Happy Wordless Wednesday. 🙂
Lovely capture 😍
Indeed. Nice to meet you. 🙂
Glad to meet you too 😇
That is a gorgeous photo and thank you for the backstory! Happy Wednesday! ❤️
Sometimes you need the backstory and I’m a rule breaker so using words on Wordless Wednesday doesn’t bother me one bit. 🙂
I think it’s a great idea, Sandee! 😉
Beautiful picture! Thank you for hosting this blog hop. Hope you’re having a wonderful week.
Merlin
You’re most welcome, my friend. You have a wonderful rest of the week too. 🙂
Such a pretty place!
It sure is. A great place to meditate. 🙂
That’s beautiful!
I agree with you. Scritches to the kitties. 🙂
Would be interesting to visit Japan one day.
Hubby and I would love to visit Japan. I doubt it will happen, but we can dream. 🙂
What lovely scenery. The cherry blossoms are the cherry on top….Alana ramblinwitham
They are indeed. Winter and spring all rolled into one. 🙂
Beautiful shot with their famous cherry blossoms. Thanks for hosting. Have a great day. XO
They are indeed famous for their cherry blossoms. We used to go to the city (San Francisco) to see the blossoms in Japantown. Beautiful. 🙂
So beautiful! It makes me long to go back to visit my relatives who live there. 🙂
Thank you for hosting, Sandee. Have a most wonderful wordless Wednesday!
You should go. It’s a good time I think. Happy Wordless Wednesday. 🙂
yet another sight I will never see with my own eyes, photos are next best to seeing it
We can travel the world and never leave our chairs. In books and photographs. 🙂
Cherry Blossoms and a gorgeous mountain
Hugs Cecilia
Yes indeed, Cecilia. Big hug. 🙂
Sandee that is so incredibly beautiful! Well done! Have a lovely Wednesday and week! Hugs! 🙂 <3
I have to work hard to outdo you. You find the most wonderful photographs. 🙂
I’ve been to Japan about 9 years ago and my biggest dream was to see Mount Fuji. The weather was bad, it was snowing…. We went a few miles up, but had to stop at the first stop due to the snowfall. So no Mount Fuji. Very disappointed.
BUT THEN!!! On our flight back, the skies cleared and the captain nicely pointed out that there will be a beautiful view of Mount Fuji from the plain. And it was!! I got some stunning photos that I now will have to go look for.
Thanks for sharing and for hosting Wordless Wednesday.
Lots of Love,
Elza Reads
Oh you need to post those photograph. From the air it would be wonderful to see. Sorry you didn’t have the weather you needed while there. Love back. 🙂
So beautiful!
Indeed, Yvonne. Happy Wordless Wednesday. 🙂
Beautiful photo of Mt. Fuji! When we lived in Japan we could see this from our house, but at a much farther distance. 🙂
Hubby would love to explore Japan. Happy day, my friend. 🙂
Stunning! I forget that Japan is a series of islands, I always think of it as just the one. Good info!
I think many of us do. Have a great day, my friend. Scritches to the kitties. 🙂
Such a beautiful image! Love the juxtaposition of the snow on the mountain and the flowering springtime trees. Happy mid-week!
That was the draw for me too.
Scritches to the pups and a smooch to handsome Norman. 🙂
It’s so pretty! I live in flat grassland. It’s nice to see some depth for once.
I hear you. We’re in the same boat. 🙂
So pretty and peaceful looking!! Happy Wednesday!!
I is most serene. I would love to be there. Happy Wednesday. 🙂
Wow! What a majestic landscape. Have a blessedf week my friend.
It is indeed. You’d have fun with a camera here. Happy Wordless Wednesday. 🙂
Beautiful photo and so interesting, the snow capped mountain background for the tree blossoms.
It’s quite the contrast. Happy Wordless Wednesday, Patricia. 🙂
Stunning photo! How amazing to see a snow capped mountain in the distance and beautiful spring blooms in the foreground. 🙂
I thought the contrast was amazing. Winter and spring rolled into one photograph. 🙂
Cannot wait for things to start blossoming!
We’re turning green here, but it was beautiful while it lasted. 🙂
I’ll have to check it out with my head honshu.
Yes you do. I love you, Kismet. 🙂

So beautiful! I like a lot the difference between the background and the pink tree!
Awesome choice, Sandee!

The Mountain. It’s beautiful and such a mystery. Hugs!
Yes on both counts my friend. Have a great day. 🙂
Spring and winter all in one photo. That is just like our area where we will have snow until May but the flowers will bloom anyway!
You do live is such a lovely place. Scritches to the pups. 🙂
