An Indian resident of Japan recently shared an amazing video of Mount Fuji from an extraordinary distance of nearly 200 kilometers. The clip, posted by a user named Azeem Mansoori, highlights Japan’s clean atmosphere and compares it to Delhi, where air quality has plummeted in recent weeks.
The video goes viral
The video quickly gained attention online, reaching nearly 12,000 views and more than 600 likes. Social media users were amazed at the visibility of the iconic peak from such a great distance.
How did Mansoori describe the air quality in Japan?
“Japan’s air is so clean,” Mansoori said in the video as he panned the camera to show Mount Fuji in the distance. Emphasizing the clarity, he added, “Let me show you how clear it looks from this distance. I think that’s proof enough that Japan’s air is very clean. Come to Japan, live here.”
How social media users reacted
The post drew mixed reactions, with many users complaining about deteriorating air quality in big cities. Some jokingly suggested sending Japanese clean air to Delhi, while others admired the purity of the sky.
“Here in Delhi you can’t see ten meters ahead,” commented the user, underscoring the stark contrast, before adding: “But despite everything, the atmosphere in Delhi is different.”
Another user wrote, “Bhai aisa Aasman dekhe hue to jamana ho gya (I haven’t seen such a sky in ages).”
Why is Mount Fuji so popular?
Mount Fuji remains one of Japan’s most famous landmarks and can be seen from several locations, including Hakone, Lake Kawaguchiko and the Fuji Five Lakes region, making it a major attraction for visitors throughout the year.
In a separate incident, a man from Bihar shared a stunning video of the Himalayas visible from Jainagar in October this year. The viral video showed a crystal clear view of the snow-capped Himalayan peaks as seen from Madhubani.
Reports said that such views of the Himalayas were occasionally seen from northern Bihar areas such as Madhubani and Sitamarhi as the air quality improved after the rains.
Stretching across five countries including India and Nepal, the Himalayas are home to the world’s highest peaks such as Mount Everest and Kanchenjunga.
Although the range was located hundreds of kilometers from Madhubani, favorable weather conditions made it visible from parts of Bihar at times.
