hiking Mt. Takao

On Saturday our family hiked Mt. Takao, a mountain 1 hour west of Tokyo. Actually, our version of hiking with three small children was taking a cable car up to the top and then hiking 15 minutes to the temple Yakuoin. The view was beautiful!

Yakuoin temple--people come here to pray to the mountain gods for good fortune.

I like your idea of hiking :). Definitely the way to go with kids.
