KYOTO SAMBI
Shuzan-kaido Road connects the urban area of Kyoto to the Sea of Japan.
Takao is located at the entrance of Shuzan-kaido Road, and is said to be one of the three greatest mountain ridges.
Takao is also well-known, not only in Kyoto, but also nationwide as one of Japan’s prime places for beautiful red autumn leaves. The landscape of the mountain village with glowing autumn leaves is seen against the beautiful forest of Kitayama cedar trees.
The atmosphere of Takao is one of the beautiful aspects of Kyoto, which was once the capital of Japan.
A pass that is convenient and advantageous for Takao sightseers has been recently released.
