Takao Mountain
For me, this place was so close, that I started from my house at 7:30am and came back at 2:30pm. We went up the mountain using Lift which costed us just 470 yen per head. It was really worth experience. After that we climbed rest of the part for about 30 minutes and reached the top! It was so lush green everywhere!
Here are some more photos...Enjoy!

Tokyo Disneyland
Wow! this was the most memorable trip in Japan! Disneyland is really an amazing place! Each and every ride we took was great! The person coming to Tokyo should not miss this place.
To plan our trip we visited Disneyland website. On this website you will find two park names, Disneyland and DisneySea. We had planned to go to disneyland. You need to go to Maihama station through JR Keio Line to visit Disney parks. Both the parks are just in front of this station.
Ticket to Disneyland for adults was 5800 yen.
This place is so big that we could not cover all the places in one day! We tried the Jungle cruise first, it was quite funny and enjoyable boat ride with some mock scenes of wild animals created across the artificial river path.
We were bit late for the parade...but managed to get the place. This event is really worth! It has everything which can lure people of all ages :D. All the disney characters, dancing boys and girls and the music of "ALOHA"! People were already waiting for the parade about 1 hr in advance with there video cameras.
We also visited ToonTown, Big Thunder Mountain, Tom Sawyer Island, Splash Mountain and Beaver Brothers Explorer canoes. Also Electric parade in the evening was fantastic one to end our day with lots of memories!Disneyland is supposed to be very much crowded on weekends and you may even have to wait in queue for around 2 hrs! So the most important tip i would like to give you is take the fast pass of the most ride which you want to finish first. Check the details of fast pass here. Also Disney passes are available in all Family marts and AM PM shops.
Overall, it was completely enjoyable day and I would love to visit again!
