Horaiji Temple & Horaisan Toshogu Shrine
On my way back from Toei, I stopped by at Horaiji. The main tourist attraction of Horaiji was the Horaiji Temple and Horaisan Toshogu Shrine complex.

The Hike Up Mount Fuji
... The last time it erupted was in 1708 (oh, and you had better believe I looked up all of these vital facts before agreeing to do this crazy stunt!) For some educational history, I have copy-and-pasted some paragraphs to better prepare my readers with an unbiased opinion about Mt.
