Fuji, Japan - June 12, 2026: The faint outline of Mount Fuji rises behind warehouse roofs and power lines in the city of Fuji, seen from a Shinkansen window. In the foreground, a warehouse roof is covered with rows of solar panels, and behind it a long corrugated roof carries a sign in Japanese characters. A large white industrial building with a company name on its facade stands in the middle ground, next to a building wrapped in scaffolding. Overhead cables cross the whole frame, and low clouds hide the base of the mountain. Japan is known for its industrial strength as much as for its natural beauty; on the way out of Tokyo the view of Mount Fuji from the Shinkansen sometimes sits layered behind industrial areas.
