Tenku Autumn Leaves Festival takes place on the 929-meter-high Mt. Mitake, where autumn arrives earlier than in central Tokyo. The lower temperatures also mean more vibrant autumn hues, which spring up around the streams and waterfalls, and entertain hikers. In celebration of autumn, the Tenku—"heavenly skies"—festival features events and performances which include bugaku dance, ninja, violin, and trained monkeys. The mountain summit is easily accessible by cable car.
