November is the best time to see the autumn leaves on Mt. Takao. The Mt. Takao Autumn Leaves Festival is held in time with this season.
What happens?
On weekends and holidays throughout the month, there are various exhibitions like taiko drumming, Japanese orchestra performances, yosakoi dancing, and concerts held at the cable car Kiyotake Station plaza. There are also stalls selling kokeshi dolls and Japanese sake served in traditional wooden box cups in front of a restaurant called Juuicchoumechaya.
Another highlight is a special fiery ritual by the head priest of Takao-san Yakuoin Temple on Saturday, October 26 from 10 a.m.
