Japan's Amazing Mt. Takatori-Yama and the Temple of Jimmu-Ji | Great Day Hike in Kanagawa Prefecture. This is just outside Yokosuka's city limits. It's about a 35 minute bike ride from blue street in Yokosuka.

This awesome spot is great if you are into rock climbing. There are tons of holds in the rocks for climbing these amazing completely vertical rock faces. The view from the top of each of them is well worth the work put in to get up there. Even if you are not a rock climber just hiking this whole area is majestical. I will he back. If you are going to do it in the summer, bring lots of water. The Jimmu-Ji temple is really cool. You can get a close up glimpse of real Japanese craftsmanship by visiting here.

I rode my bike here and hiked for a few hours and was in awe at everything. It's a nice peaceful nature break from the busyness down in the city.
