🌋 Mt. Fuji is actually 3 volcanoes in 1!
That brown layer? That’s Komitake, the OG volcano from 700,000 years ago.
The red-orange one? Ko-Fuji — “Old Fuji” — which built most of the mountain we see today before collapsing and reshaping.
And sitting on top is Shin-Fuji, the youngest and still active volcano that gave Fuji its Insta-perfect cone.
Seeing this cross-section at the Geological Museum in Tsukuba made me realize… Fuji isn’t just a mountain, it’s a layer cake of fire and history. 🔥🍰
And with the Japanese government recently releasing a video simulation of what could happen if Fuji erupts, it hits different knowing we’re living right next to this giant sleeping volcano. 😳
Would you still want to climb it? ⛰️👀
