🍁Taiki Town's Recommended Autumn Spots🍁 When it comes to places to feel autumn in Taiki Town, the stunning autumn leaves at Sakashita Senkyo stand out. It's tucked away a bit, so here are directions on how to get there! 1. On the Shimizu–Taiki Line (Hokkaido Route 55), you'll see a sign on the right if you come from Kamifutsunai, and on the left if you come from Taiki. Follow the arrow and turn. (Photo 2) 2. You will see the orange bridge “Bikei Bridge” ahead; continue across it. (Photo 3) 3. The paved road changes to gravel along the way. Keep going and you will pass the orange bridge “Sakashita Ohashi.” (Photo 4) 4. After passing another gray bridge you will spot a dairy farm. Go past the farm a short distance until the road splits left and right, then follow the left sign. The sign reads “Rekifune River Tributary Forest Road,” and this is where the forest road begins. (Photos 5–6) 5. Continue along the forest road for a while. Some sections get muddy after rain and fallen branches may block the way, so proceed slowly. (Photo 7) 6. You will arrive at Higata Bridge, which spans Sakashita Senkyo. (Photo 8) There is a small space on the right after crossing the bridge where you can park or make a U-turn. For more detailed directions, see the Visit Taiki topic article “How to Get to Sakashita Senkyo.” Use it as a reference and go enjoy the autumn scenery!

I was walking while enjoying the sound of ginkgo leaves.

The Yakachi River in Handa City, Aichi Prefecture, is a fantastic sight where more than 3 million red spider liliies trees grown by local people are covered with a bright red carpet over a total length of about 1.5 km. In the midst of such a red spider liliies in full bloom, a mock wedding ceremony and bride procession event was held. The smiling faces of the two people were a wonderful event.

Kamakura in late autumn, Meigetsu-in. It is a temple that is always visited during the maple season. Round windows are also called windows of enlightenment, and they give peace of mind while reflecting different landscapes in spring, summer, autumn, and winter. Maybe it's Nanbu ironware, but the iron kettle draws a beautiful silhouette.

Kinchakuda Manju Shaka Festival This year, the flowering was delayed due to the heat, but it is finally close to full bloom. As expected, it is the largest manju flower colony in Japan. It was a masterpiece.

Mid-autumn name moon delayed by 1 day I was able to see the moon like Tokyo. From left to right: Tokyo Skytree, Roppongi and Tokyo Tower.

Head to the Yokoya Kannon Observatory in Yokoya Valley, Nagano Prefecture The rows of autumn leaves on the side streets are a masterpiece. During the less popular early morning hours, you can monopolize the superb view of autumn leaves!

\You can attend the monthly festival from 7 am on October 1st/ This shrine holds a monthly festival on the first day of every month. Until now, the ceremony was held only by priests, but it is now possible to accept general attendance.

Anyone can participate free of charge without reservation, and there will be a lecture by the priest after the ritual.

Komadome water fall is considered Nasu's foremost waterfall. It is three meters wide and falls down around around twenty meters from a cliff on the Yosasa river. During autumn time it looks amazingly beautiful.

[Autumn Marche Held] The Autumn Marche took place over two days on September 17th and 18th. A tent stood at the entrance of Roadside Station Nishiokoppe Kamu, featuring chiffon cakes, Ezo deer meatballs, a flea market, and stalls selling Nishiokoppe-produced vegetables. Children from the elementary school prepared a lottery for kids and a popular "candy fishing" game where sweets were attached to magnets, which seemed to be a big hit! I couldn’t join this time, so I’m already looking forward to next year’s marche.

The golden rice terraces that make you feel the arrival of autumn are just about to be harvested. This is a terraced rice field protected in an area called "Kitaura Safety Temple" that spreads out in the mountainous area of Oga City, Akita Prefecture. Beyond the terraced rice fields, you can see the mountains of the "Three Mountains of Oga Mayama, Motoyama, and Mt. Momu", and clean spring water flows from the mountains, moistening the terraced rice fields and producing delicious rice. I'm looking forward to the delicious rice~.

red spider liliies of the Tsuya River. This year, the heat was so severe that I couldn't take a picture of the entire bank in bright red.

Signaling the arrival of autumn red spider liliies It's a sight to behold. I took a retrograde photo with an old lens This taste that can only be served with old lenses It's one of the best in the world. The location will be shooting at the Gojo River in Oguchi Town.
