Among them, the "Autumn Foliage of Tambodaira" that can be seen from the "Tateyama Ropeway" is a magnificent carpet of autumn colors that you should see at least once... It is a moment when you are embraced by nature and feel incredibly small like a living creature.
The autumn leaves change color as the scene shifts to the foot of the mountain, including Nanamagari and Midagahara. Let's go out and find an autumn that is more dramatic and memorable than any TV drama!
