Nature of TOKYO | JAPAN

I guess basically Tokyo makes imagine huge city to people who knows Tokyo, but, for example, further west of Tokyo is colder than central department, even though Tokyo is narrow, because there are lots of nature in west, and these areas are called Okutama(奥多摩), Takao(高尾).

If you are interesting in nature of Tokyo, you can reach them by train from Shinjuku-station. It takes 40mins to Takao and there is mountain climbable with casual outfits.

!Until Okutama, it takes about 2 hours, so please take care of your schedule.
