The best season is arriving at Tasuki no Koyo.

Bands of red Sorbus matsumurana leaves are spreading out over the slope in upper Minamisawa that is popularly known as “Tasuki no Koyo,” indicating that their best viewing season is arriving.
As of today, a gradation of colors that begins with green and extends to oranges and reds has appeared. By about this weekend, a sash of scarlet could also appear.
