It suddenly got chilly, didn’t it? 🍂 That means the autumn leaves season is just around the corner!
From Nov 21 to Dec 7, Koko-en Garden (normally closed at night) will be open in the evenings too.

The maple trees inside the garden will be beautifully lit up, so you can enjoy a completely different atmosphere from the daytime.
