This photo was taken from the top of the hill looking down on the gingko trees and the buildings of the town in the distance. Koishikawa Botanical Garden, located in Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo, is a quiet and healing spot where visitors can enjoy rich nature in the heart of the city. The garden covers a total area of 16 hectares and is home to a wide variety of trees, including gingko, metasequoia, and maple trees. Especially during the autumn foliage season, the golden gingko trees, avenues of reddish-brown metasequoia trees, and bright red maple trees adorn the park and leave visitors with a sense of wonder. The best time to view the autumn leaves is from mid-November to early December, when the park is enveloped in a harmony of vivid colors, making it an excellent photo spot for those who love photography. The soft morning light and warm evening light make the autumn colors even more beautiful, and looking up at the trees and photographing with the fallen leaves underfoot is especially recommended. The spacious lawn area is also a great place to enjoy a stroll or picnic with the autumn leaves in the background, and to spend a peaceful time away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
