It's so wonderful, wonderful life postcard! Every time when I receive postcard from my favourits I feel so happy!

Yoriko wrote that this is the Green Tea plantation in front of Mt. Fiji. By the way, green tea is my favourite ;)

I agree with the sender that the combination of blue sky, Mt. Fiji with white snow and vivid green tea plantation is great view!

Mount Fuji is the highest mountain in Japan at 3,776.24 m. Mount Fuji's exceptionally symmetrical cone, which is snow-capped several months a year, is a well-known symbol of Japan and it is frequently depicted in art and photographs, as well as visited by sightseers and climbers. It is one of Japan's "Three Holy Mountains" along with Mount Tate and Mount Haku; it is a Special Place of Scenic Beauty, a Historic Site, and was added to the World Heritage List as a Cultural Site on June 22nd, 2013.

The mountain has been selected as a “cultural” rather than a “natural” heritage site. As per UNESCO, Mount Fuji has “inspired artists and poets and been the object of pilgrimage for centuries”. 

Look on all these stamps! And sticker :)
