Daytrip at Mt.Takao

News /

We met our guests at the station of Takao-san-guchi at 9:15.

At the station of cable car, we saw the wild white flower (Sekkoku in Japanese), that was so beautiful. We went on trail of Route No1, and the nature in June is so comfortable for us.

We were reached to Yakuo-in temple in the middle of Mt.Takao.
In front of the main hall, there were a large incense burner. Worshipers light incense sticks and wave the smoke over themselves as spiritual purification before praying. This tradition is especially popular among students preparing for entrance exams. It is said that waving the smoke over your head makes you smarter, so many students hope for academic success by doing this. Our guests enjoyed this traditional experience, saying “I want to be the professor”. It looks very happy

On the top of the mountain, we enjoy the lunch. On the return way, we go through the suspension bridge, it is going to be the great fun !!
