Clear winter mornings for Mount Fuji
Miho no Matsubara is a long arc of black-sand beach backed by tens of thousands of wind-sculpted pines, listed as part of the Mount Fuji World Heritage Site. On a clear day the volcano floats across Suruga Bay beyond the famous 'Hagoromo' pine - the classic Japanese view that inspired the legend of a celestial maiden.
