Taste the picturesque scenery of the three-story pagoda and autumn leaves at Sankeien Garden
If you want to photograph the autumn leaves in Sankeien, the autumn view with the three-story pagoda in the background is a must-see. The combination of the historic building and the colored trees creates a tranquil, picture scroll-like atmosphere in the garden. If you take a composition over the pond, the autumn leaves reflected on the surface of the water will add a subtle accent, and the soft light in the early morning or evening will beautifully accentuate the silhouette of the three-story pagoda. The expression of the leaves changes from place to place in the large park, and the fun of walking around the park looking for the gradation of red, yellow, and green is one of the attractions of this tour. Autumn in Sankeien is especially recommended for those who want to take the time to appreciate the harmony of traditional architecture and autumn leaves.
Key points for photography
The key to shooting was to choose a position where the three-story pagoda could be seen naturally through the trees, and to bring out the harmony of the colors of the buildings and the autumn leaves with the soft morning and evening light, while taking advantage of the reflection of the pond's surface in the foreground.
