Mount Takao has it all: stunning views, delicious food, and exciting festivals. Why not spend a day exploring the (semi) wilds of one of Tokyo’s best-loved mountains?
The 599m-tall mountain — called Takao-san by locals — is easily hikeable and is especially popular with couples, families, and seniors. Though you can actually skip the hiking if you like: Mount Takao has a ropeway that takes you most of the way up. It’s located in Tama at the western edge of Tokyo, about an hour by train from Shinjuku Station.

I'm currently in an airbnb three minutes from shin-okubo station. Two days ago we spent time in koenji, at the end of the night i saw a bit of the meteor shower. Today we spent the entire day in kamakura. We got a great view of the sunset and mount fuji, and even witnessed a lady get attacked by a hawk and I let her use my first aid kit. While walking back to the train station, the full moon looked absolutely humongous thanks to an illusion that occurs when it rises from the horizon, the moon was also completely orange! Was wondering what we would do for tomorrow or the day after. I think this video answers that!! Thank you for your hard work
Really enjoyed your tour, Patricia, and your fun vibe made it. Would love to come to Japan one day and see all these wonderful places.😊
nice setup/segway to the sponsor😂
