ThomasMount Fuji belongs to private land. The Japanese government has no right to use the mountain, only the lease right. The earliest ownership of Mount Fuji belonged to Tokugawa Jiakang in the shogunate era. Later, Tokugawa Jiakang gave the land above 3360 meters of Mount Fuji to Asama temple on Mount Fuji. At the beginning of the 20th century, Mount Fuji was once nationalized. It was not until 2004 that the Japanese government returned the land more than 3360 meters above Mount Fuji to Asama temple.
