Byobu-iwa




I took these photos in Koishikawa Korakuen.
Those rocks are called "Byobu-iwa"
"Byobu" means Japanese folding screen, and "iwa" means rock.
When I visited there, those rocks looked nice with autumn red leaves.

Autumn Colours in Yasukuni Shrine




Yasukuni Shrine is a Shinto shrine located at Kudankita, Chiyoda ward.
You can see beautiful autumn leaves at the shrine.
Especially, I like yellow leaves of ginkgo trees in the shrine.

Chidorigafuchi is a very popular cherry blossom viewing spot.
That walking road along the moat is so crowded in the season.
But I also like stroll there in late autumn.
