b. have none of the awesome majesty of the Himalayas and have little of the mysticism of
c. are neither as awfully majestic as the Himalayas nor as little mystical as
d. are neither as awesome as the Himalayas nor as mysterious as
e. have neither the majesty of the Himalayas nor the mystery of
In A and B, awesome majesty is redundant.
Eliminate A and B.

C: as mystical as of Japan's Mount Fuji
D: as mysterious as of Japan's Mount Fuji
In these options, it is unclear what is being modified by of Japan's Mount Fuji.
Eliminate C and D.

The correct answer is E.
