Hachioji city Course
5 Takaosan no Sugi-Namiki (row of cedars in Takaosan)

The row of cedar trees, planted along the approach to the ground of Takaosan Yakuo-in, is very unique in Tokyo. This row is composed of more than 10 cedar trees with a giant cedar at the beginning. Although the 26th typhoon ravaged in this area on 24th September 1966, these giant trees survived. The giant cedar is 47 m high and has 5.6 m trunk circumference. As these cedars are already old, the trunk of some of them is hollow near the roots.
