Japan Famous Peaks & Mountain Scenery Coloring Book

About this book

Sixty real Japanese mountains — and every one of them ready to color.

This book climbs the whole spine of Japan: the perfect cone of Mount Fuji; the spear of Yari and the sword ridge of Tsurugi in the Northern Alps; sacred Tateyama, Hakusan and Ontake; the white pyramid of Kaikoma and the second-highest summit in the country, Kita; smoking Asama, Aso and Yakedake; the twin peaks of Yufu above the onsen steam; and island cones that rise straight from the sea — Rishiri, Yotei and Kaimon, the Fuji of Satsuma.

Every subject appears as a two-page spread: on one side, a full-color photo guide with a short, fascinating story — the height, the shape, the legend, and what to look for while you color — and on the other, a detailed coloring page of the very same view, converted from the real photograph so the ridgeline you color is the mountain itself. A guide at the front shows you how to print only the coloring pages at home and save your color ink.

Inside you will find: • Mount Fuji and the great Northern Alps — Yari, Hotaka, Tsurugi, Tateyama, Shirouma and Goryu • The Southern and Central Alps — Kita, Kaikoma, Senjo, Akaishi and Kisokoma's flower cirque • Sacred mountains — Ontake, Haku, Nantai, Hiei, Gassan the moon mountain, and the yamabushi ridges of Omine and Miune • Volcanoes — Asama, Bandai, Aso, Unzen, Yakedake and Akita-Komagatake mirrored in Lake Tazawa • Island and northern summits — Rishiri, Yotei, Daisetsuzan's Asahi, Shiretoko's Rausu and the Fuji of Tsugaru, Iwaki • 60 full-color photo guides with the story of each peak (about 80–120 words each) • None of these sixty subjects appeared in our previous Japan coloring books

Sixty famous peaks, one great walk along Japan's spine — bring pencils, and take your time.
