Viewing autumn leaves is just as important to the Japanese as the spring cherry blossom season, so locals treasure beautiful views both in natural environments and in curated parks within cities

For locals and tourists alike in Japan, fall leaves, known as “koyo” add a special touch to leisurely strolls

[{"selector":"#anim-4b845f0b-0a5a-4dde-a4dd-f51743c1617c","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":150,"duration":3000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-a316fe59-5cdc-4124-9941-43be709adf18","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":150,"duration":3000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e632dfd8-1599-4a8d-b54d-f38a4492db5a","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.3333333333333333)","scale(1)"]},"delay":150,"duration":3000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

The weather is usually ideal for exploring, especially if you plan to visit shrines, temples, castles, and another fascinating site

In Japan, fall is a long season, stretching from mid-September to December

[{"selector":"#anim-ff404fb4-0fbe-4c61-95ce-30e7730fb196","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":150,"duration":3000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-5a709ba9-024c-451a-8120-bb3399321855","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":150,"duration":3000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-0df02440-413c-456d-8f74-da71bbab93c1","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.3333333333333333)","scale(1)"]},"delay":150,"duration":3000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

However, the cold weather starts in northern Hokkaido and slowly moves downwards, so your views of the autumn leaves can differ

[{"selector":"#anim-5b4c0fba-90f9-4ed9-9470-226ba51e5389","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":150,"duration":3000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-c4e76445-d05c-4566-8dd5-94746d88584c","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":150,"duration":3000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-9aa48a60-6d2e-4014-9616-8a21f598fd4c","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.3333333333333333)","scale(1)"]},"delay":150,"duration":3000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Fortunately, once leaves start to turn red in one area, they usually stay that way for three to four weeks.
