Arashiyama in Kyoto is one of the most beautiful places to experience autumn in Japan. From mid to early December, the hills and riversides are covered in stunning shades of red, orange, and yellow. The famous Togetsukyo Bridge becomes even more picturesque, surrounded by the brilliant colors of the season. 🍁
Visitors can enjoy walking through the bamboo forest, exploring the temples, or taking a relaxing boat ride along the Katsura River while admiring the autumn scenery. The combination of nature, history, and calm atmosphere makes Arashiyama an unforgettable autumn destination.
If you plan to visit Kyoto in early December, Arashiyama is the perfect place to enjoy the last wave of Japan’s autumn colors before winter arrives.
