Tanzawa Oyama Quasi National Park

The day after our first trip to Kamakura, we took another trip to the mountains. We followed the same route that we used earlier in the week to get to Hakone - a very scenic road that followed the coastline. However, we turned towards the mountains about halfway to Hakone and headed towards the city of Hadano. From Hadano we took a very small, very winding road that climbed in elevation very quickly.

 Here is a picture from the scenic overlook near the top of the mountain that rises above Hadano.


 I added this picture because the picture after this is taken at the top of the tower - it was quite a walk getting to the top.

  1. In the top picture you can see the Pacific Ocean. Just above Macie's head you can see just a sliver of it. Not sure about the tree in the last picture. Plum trees was favored at one time over cherry trees I read they bloom earlier than the cherry trees. Beautiful dark pink blossoms regardless of what kind of tree it is. Macie in particular was amazed at the mountains.
