Mt. Takao Beer Garden
Not only is a day trip escape to Mt. Takao a pleasant only-in-Japan thing to do in the steamy months of June – August, there’s an all-you-can-eat, all-you-can-drink beer garden at the summit in the summertime. (And Mt. Takao isn’t the only beer garden in town – there are a ton of excellent options right in Tokyo on rooftops and parks if you do a search!)
