Highly Recommended For Nature Lovers!
An hour or so from the frenetic bustle of Tokyo lie some of Japans most
tranquil and scenic spots just waiting to be explored-if you know how to get
to them. The 25 walks in this guide have been specially selected for their
proximity to the capital and for their unspoilt scenery. All the walks
originate from Tokyo, and detailed instructions are provided on how to get
to the starting point by public transportation. All walk descriptions are
accompanied by precise maps to make sure you wont lose your way.
Place names and signs seen along the way are given in both Japanese
and English, and points of interest as well as the flora and fauna of each
area are described in detail. This guide gives every Tokyo resident a
much-needed and easy-to-follow escape route to the serenity of nature.
Personal Review: Day Walks Near Tokyo (Origami Classroom)
by Gary DA. Walters
I have lived in Japan for 3 years and I often go up to Tokyo. But every now
and then, it is nice escape all of the noise and commotion.

Initially I took walks on my own with little direction and knowledge of the
outlying areas, which was met with limited success. One day, I stumble
across this book purely by coincidence; until now I didn't even realize a
book like this existed.
The minute I picked this book up, I knew this was the book I had been
looking for. This book provides detailed walks throughout the greater
Tokyo area to some of the most picturesque areas you have ever seen.
Areas that seem so far removed from Tokyo, I never could have imagined
they existed so close by. Among the various walks covered are: mountain
hikes, countryside strolls, walks along the coastline, and even walks to
waterfalls. Additionally, each walk comes complete with detailed directions
(with the Kanji), map, and even pictures.
If you have even the slightest desire to see the beauty that Japan has to
offer or you just need somewhere to go to enjoy the peace & quite "Day
Walks Near Tokyo" is the perfect book for you.
