Red leaves of fall (Ko-yo-)

 
I know you can enjoy the changes of seasons in your countries too, but I would be very happy if you could come to Japan in this season and feel how fall ends and welcome winter in Japan.

Starting from the middle of November to early December, the colors of leaves change into red and yellow in Aichi area.

You will be happened to see these just walking down the streets, but I reccomend  you to pick some particular places and enjoy the festival kind of atomosphere. Ususally, places like Japanese shrines and temples are good to visit!



Here are some links;
Higashiyama Zoo and Botanical Garden: http://www.higashiyama.city.nagoya.jp/14_english/index.html
Very convinience to go. You take Higashiyama-line subway from Nagoya station, and get off at Higashiyama Koen. English annoucement is available in the subway.


Tokugawa-en:

This is a beautiful Japanese traditional garden. It is recommend in any seasons.
You can take subway and get off at Ozone. It takes 10 to 15 min walk from Ozone station.

Shiratori-Teien:

This is also a garden, but the biggest in Nagoya city. You can also try Japanese tea ceremony with 500 yen.

The most famous place for colored leaves in Aichi prefecture. I strongly recommend, but sorry, it is not really convinience to go. Hope you can have someone to take to!


Colored leaves go on forever!
