Fujiyamashita Station

Fujiyamashita Station (富士山下駅, Fujiyama-shita-eki) is a passenger railway station on the Jōmō Line in Kiryū, Gunma, Japan, operated by the private railway operator Jōmō Electric Railway Company. Travelers looking for Mt. Fuji should be careful not to mistakenly come to this station. Fujiyamashita Station is around 200 km and two prefectures away from Japan's most famous mountain. The name means "The bottom of Fuji Mountain" and when written in kanji characters is identical to Mt. Fuji, but does not have any relation to the popular tourist destination.[1]
