On this day, foodie Kasai, trying to ignore his hunger (lol), visited Suwa's autumn foliage spots to bring you the much-requested updates and took photos. It was sunny in the morning, but in the afternoon—perhaps because of my bad karma—it turned cloudy. Sorry about that (lol).
Below are my impressions of each spot. These are my personal opinions, so I appreciate your understanding.

1. Takashima Castle and Gokoku Shrine — The ginkgo trees have not changed color at all and were still vividly green. The maples showed only a faint hint of color.

2. Lake Suwa / Lakeside Park — These areas are just beginning to change color, but it still feels early.

3. Katakura-kan (Katakura Hall) — The ginkgo trees are gradually taking on a yellowish tint, but they're not quite there yet.

4. Tateishi Park — This spot also shows only the first signs of color.

It rained on the 23rd, but the high was 23°C (about 73–74°F). Mornings have been warm; this week looks to have highs around 20°C with lows staying above 10°C (about 50°F). I feel the autumn colors are arriving later than usual—perhaps by more than a week.

Mt. Shikinzan (紫金山) — Comet ATLAS Everyone, did you know that Comet ATLAS was visible to the naked eye in Japan from October 13th to October 26th? As for me — Kasai, a big eater — I was so preoccupied with my appetite that I completely forgot. My apologies. I received these beautiful photos from contributing photographer Ms. F.N. They are stunning — I hope I can shoot like this someday! I feel lucky to have been born in a city where such beautiful scenes can be seen. I think it’s a city to be proud of!!! With these photos showing the comet visible from Tateishi Park, doesn’t it remind you of that scene from that movie? A lake appears and the comet falls… Yes! That movie! Is this the model for Lake Itomori? People say so, and it has become a pilgrimage site visited by international guests. I received photos of Comet ATLAS over Shikinzan, taken from Tateishi Park, and I'd like to share them with you. The comet appears in every photo, so please try to find it! ※ Brightness has been adjusted. Apparently there were many skilled photographers at Tateishi Park that day. Someone told F.N. that some lenses cost as much as a kei car. Photography truly is a deep art. Although my wife scolds me for 'not using my SLR at all,' I will keep practicing every day so I can share attractive photos of Suwa with everyone 📷 ※ Personally, I would be grateful for any tips on operating Nikon D-series cameras (I love my older D7100), such as how to shoot fireworks or comets.

Shinyu Onsen (a limited partnership) has launched “Suwa Taisha Navi,” an on-site interactive guide for foreign visitors and domestic tourists. This on-site interactive guide for Suwa Taisha supports four languages—Japanese, English, Traditional Chinese, and French—and introduces the highlights of the four Suwa Taisha shrine sites (Honmiya, Maemiya, Harumiya, and Akimiya). The app's guide is Suwa City's official mascot, Suwa-hime (Princess Suwa), who provides narration for 84 points of interest—monuments and buildings—across the four shrines. Download the app and launch it on site to hear audio commentary. Locations where you've listened to the commentary will be marked with a fan icon. It will make a nice keepsake of your visit—please give it a try!
