Fuji-duka
Small artificial mountain "Fuji-duka" built by imitating Mount Fuji, Nishi-Oginkbo, Tokyo, November 2016
“Miniature Fuji” (Fuji-duka) is a smaller version of Mount Fuji, made artificially by imitating it in the Edo period by “Fuji-kou” – an organization of “Fuji Faith”. They are made for those who can not really climb Mt. Fuji for various reasons. If one climbs up a Fuji-duka, one gets the same benefit as climbing Mt. Fuji.
