Viewing Mt. Fuji from Shinkansen
When you are traveling on Shinkansen around Shizuoka, you may be able to enjoy viewing Mt. Fuji if the weather is good enough.
The picture above was taken from the window of "seat E" side.
At little to the west of Shizuoka station, you can view Mt. Fuji on "seat A" side for a moment. It is called "Fuji on the left", because seat A is on the left of west-bound train.
