Akiu is in 'kouyou' season

Akiu is in 'kouyou' season! Now is the best time to visit!
Fresh and lively green leaves change their colors into red and yellow in autumn.
This phenomenon is called 'Kouyou' in Japanese, and it paints mountains red. In Japan, there has been a long tradition of enjoy watching kouyou in autumn, which is called 'Momiji-gari' (literally means 'autumn leaves hunting'). This beautiful sight lasts only 10 days out of one year. Many people visit renowned 'Momiji-gari' spots throughout Japan to enjoy beautiful colored leaves.
