This [tree house restaurant](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ginza-41) is located on Highway 58 at the entrance of Onoyama Park in the south of Japan. The establishment, called **Okinawa Tree House**, is perched upon what looks like a [real tree](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-great-tree). But in reality, the restaurant is atop a man-made concrete structure and the clients have to take an elevator located inside the fake trunk to get to the restaurant.

This is pretty cool and very original and it should be a real treat for adults and kids alike.
