Trip to Tokyo, Aug-Sep 2013. Two huge red crossing arches outside the north exit of JR Tachikawa Station. I did a day walk following the Tama Monorail tracks from one end to the other, i.e. from Kamikitadai to Tama-Center. Doing that (I can’t imagine too many people being that keen!) will take you through Tachikawa which is the largest hub in the entire stretch of the monorail.

Tama area is the name of the western part of Tokyo Metropolis. It consists of 26 cities, 3 towns and a village. A lot of people (about 4 milion) live in a eastern half part of the area. However, there are many mountains in the western part of Tama area, and there are very little flat land. Many hiking spots are in the western area, so you can enjoy walking on the trail, camping, and so on. If you see the beautiful mountain scene, you may not believe this is also in Tokyo.
