The large red Tengu statue stands just outside Takao Station — an iconic, photogenic guardian with Mount Takao rising behind. Shoot close-ups of the carved mask and staff, environmental portraits with the mountain/station plaza, and seasonal shots (cherry blossom, autumn leaves, occasional snow). Easily accessible by train (no entry fee); weekdays and early mornings are quieter. Golden hour and blue hour lighting + clear weather give best color and contrast. Limited parking at the station; be-cv
