During existing in the city, the street car called the Japanese oldest runs freely, and you show me some retrospective views. I'll choose and introduce a place famous for beautiful colored autumnal leaves from a park in downtown where you can go by such street car to the temple in mountain with a nice view and the gorge where I'd like to extend my journey and visit intentionally.

SNS is the spot of colored leaves paid much attention at the park learned about as person's walk course in an area. The trees in a park are dyed in orange from deep yellow at the end of November when autumn deepens, and it's wrapped in the colored leaves with the ardent vicinity aspect. On a day in the autumn when I cleared up, that sunlight through the leaves of trees shines from a row of trees, surprisingly, the brilliant view is also photogenic.
Even if a leaf of red and yellow begins to fall in December, best time still continues. The world a fallen leaf which lies thick on the ground is piled like a carpet, and which is flamboyant autumn surely. Crisply, if, a heart also calms down in the form of the children that it's also fun and idle by a fallen leaf to step firmly and walk. I'll taste the scenery only this time grinds fascinatedly up fully.

One of the existence Tenshu twelve castle left from before in the Edo Period in the center in the Kochi city.

The "high school" turns, and there is also an opinion made a castle of "hawk" because the mountain Shiro leaves was called Otaka Sakayama (Proud, and, oh.)
When it also draws to the end in October, the surrounding trees are in the look of the autumn a little. Green high Tenshu of the Japanese maple and the pine dyed deep red draws a beautiful contrast.

A gingko row of trees will be dyed in glaring yellow and be in an ideal view spot simultaneously in colored leaves season. The bottom of fine weather, freely, as I take a walk, it seems that a heart is investigated. A maple in a garden colors in red from orange, and the late fall and this time a leaf of a gingko begins to fall when are healed by the landscape full of feelings.
