Tama Hills, Rolling hills in southwestern Tokyo, Japan
The Tama Hills extend across 300 square kilometers of land between Tokyo and Kanagawa Prefecture, reaching elevations of 220 meters above sea level.
Archaeological discoveries in the Tama Hills region reveal settlements dating from the Jomon period, when hunter-gatherers established communities in these elevated areas.
The Studio Ghibli film Pom Poko incorporated the Tama Hills landscape and its transformation from natural terrain to residential development as central story elements.
Multiple hiking trails throughout the hills connect various municipalities including Hachioji, Hino, Tama, Inagi, and Machida, offering routes suitable for different fitness levels.
The Nihon Minka-en museum preserves twenty traditional Japanese farmhouses relocated from different regions, displaying historical architectural styles within the Tama Hills area.
