Japan in red: autumn leaves photography tour, 9 – 17 November, 19 – 27 November 2022

Japan is one of the most enigmatic countries in the world. Although having a lot of technologies, cosmic looking trains and modern mega cities, Japan keeps its secrets and enigmas - there are many magnificent temples, parks and gardens, unusual traditional cuisine. We offer you to go to Japan in one of the most wonderful seasons of the year – in autumn, when the maples are in bloom. The Japanese enjoy viewing autumn colors. They call it Momijigari. Momiji is the Japanese name for Acer palmatum, the Japanese maple tree. Colorful leaves (koyo) are to the Japanese autumn what cherry blossoms are to spring. The viewing of autumn leaves has been a popular activity in Japan for centuries. Maples begin turning red from September on Hokkaido and end at the beginning of December in the Southern regions of Honshu. Our trip is mainly dedicated to peak in colors in Kyoto. Of course, we’ll also visit Kawaguchiko Lake under the legendary Mount Fuji.
