Mount Fuji from Chiba Prefecture

At a glance

The Uchibo area along Tokyo Bay on the Boso Peninsula is a region where the "100 Views of Mt. Fuji in Kanto" are located one after another. As you travel south along the Uchibo area, you may feel a strange sensation that "while you are getting further and further away from Tokyo on the land route, the distance to Mt. Fuji is getting shorter."
From the Minami Boso area you can see Mount Fuji across the sea and enjoy the mountain rising against the sunset-tinted sky.The subjects of the collaboration include Tokyo Bay (boats, Umihotaru, Aqua-Line, etc.), the moon (Diamond Fuji and Pearl Fuji), shrines, castles, high-rise buildings (skyscrapers, Tokyo Skytree, Chiba Port Tower, etc.), and illuminations, making this a one-shot that can only be taken in Chiba Prefecture.
If you are in a location with a view of Mount Fuji and the weather is good, you have a chance to see Diamond Fuji for a few minutes twice a year, from the winter solstice to the summer solstice (May) and from the summer solstice to the winter solstice (December).
