Mt. Takao Sumika

Nestled in at the Takao-san Station of the Takao Cable Car, Mt. Takao Sumika is a well-frequented stop for everything from soba and café bites to souvenirs and more. The must-shop item here is "Tenguyaki" a regional treat shaped like the face of a crow tengu. Bite into this crisp, fragrant delight for scrumptious filling of subtly sweet red bean paste made from black soybeans. You won’t want to miss snagging a bite, especially when fresh from the oven!
