Autumn is a beautiful season. Honestly speaking it is my best season in Japan. This is mainly due to good weather and magnificent views. Usually we enjoy the autumn by ourself but this time we decided to include take our special family members in tbe autumn party. The looks so nice and pretty. It seems they also enjoyed a lot. We tried our best to give them a autumn date. Very special outing for us. Photo taken in Showa Memorial Park in Tokyo.

Autumn on Mt. Ōyama 2024速報 This is Mt. Ōyama as of the morning of Thursday, November 7, under clear autumn skies. The leaves are just beginning to change color. From around 700 meters, a view that earned two stars in the Michelin Green Guide Japan offers a breathtaking panorama of Sagami Bay, Enoshima, the Miura Peninsula and the Bōsō Peninsula. The autumn foliage near the Happiness Bell and the Love-Tying Bell right by the cable car’s Ōyama-dera Station is especially beautiful now—be sure to ring the bell. Sunset comes early, so if you plan to reach the summit, start early in the morning and allow plenty of time. We look forward to welcoming you again this year with that wonderful view. See you in autumn in Isehara.
