At first, I will show you one photo.

Some people thought the photo took in somewhere to Europe however, it is wrong.
Actually, the photo took in Tokyo!!!!!
Today, I’m going to tell you my most favorite place in Tokyo which is called Lake Okutama!
You can see this great view in TOKYO !!!(Lake Okutama)
Where is the Lake Okutama ?
Lake Okutama places in Nishitama-gun Tokyo Prefecture (I took this photo in Tomeura, Okutama-cyou, Nishiokutama-gun 198-0221 Tokyo Prefecture)
You can see this map, it will take approximately 2 hours from Tokyo Station to Tomeura (Lake Okutama).
I recommend you should rent a car and get to the place because, public transportation is not comfortable and there are not many way to get there I think.
※The map is including toll road. If you get to the place by not using toll road, you might take about 3 hours or more from central Tokyo by car.
What is Lake Okutama ?
Lake Okutama is an arctic dam lake, not natural one. The construction finished in 1957 and it is attached a Hydroelectric power facility. The lake is very important position because the lake provides water to Tokyo and Kanto region when there is drought situation.

If there is no strong wind and not full water in the lake, you can cross this floating bridge. The bridge shakes your body when you advance the way. It is so fun !

Please pay attention !
There are some points of pay attention !
