Viewpoint
What makes this place special?
At a Glance
Chureito Pagoda is Fujiyoshida’s five-storey war memorial, overlooking the city with Mount Fuji beyond.
It stands in Arakurayama Sengen Park, where the upper viewpoint frames the red pagoda against the mountain when visibility allows. Cherry blossoms in spring and autumn foliage add seasonal colour. The approach from the park entrance includes 398 steps. This is a municipal memorial to local people lost in war; visit quietly and respect its commemorative purpose.
