About the place
Mount Haku (白山?, Haku-san), or Mount Hakusan (commonly referred to as simply Hakusan), is a potentially active volcano. The stratovolcano is located on the borders of Gifu, Fukui, and Ishikawa (which are in Honshu) prefectures in Japan. It is thought to have first been active 300,000 to 400,000 years ago, with the most recent eruption occurring in 1659. Along with Mount Tate and Mount Fuji, it is one of Japan's "Three Holy Mountains" (三霊山?, Sanreizan).[2]
