Mt. Takao

Mt. Takao is a mountain in the vicinity of Tokyo. The height of this mountain is about 650m (2130ft). Even this hight is a little bit high for some people. Nobody lives there because there is no flat place. However, Takao-san is crowded but other mountains are not. This series of pictures is about one-day trip in Takao and neighbor mountains.
