Crown Prince Naruhito has climbed up Fujinomiya Trail to the summit of Mount Fuji on August 8th. It was his first time to reach the top, as he once tried in 1988 but had to give up at the 8th station due to bad weather. "I felt the greatness of Mount Fuji, and the sunrise was incredible", the crown price said.
