The largest lava cave in Aokigahara Jukai Woodland.
The length of the largest lava cave in the foot of Mt. Fuji extends more than 350m.
The mysterious shapes that nature like stalactite and undulation lava make can be seen inside.
Inside the cave is warm and a large number of bats inhabit for their wintering.
At renovation in April 2006 gallery to display “batman” movie related poster etc. are built and added more highlights.
