About this event
At Byobuiwa Public Park located in Soni Village, Uda District, Nara Prefecture, the large wild cherry trees over 100 years old show stunning autumn foliage when fall arrives. Standing on the west side of Mount Kabuto, the nationally designated Natural Monument "Byobuiwa" is characterized by a rock cliff towering as if a folding screen (byobu) were set upright, just as its name suggests. The rock wall, about 2 kilometers wide and about 200 meters high, towers sharply like saw blades, allowing visitors to enjoy the vivid autumn colors of the wild cherry trees amidst this magnificent landscape. The best time to see the autumn leaves is usually from early to mid-November. Admission is free, and it can be visited 24 hours a day. With hot springs and other autumn leaf spots nearby, it is a great place to fully enjoy Nara in autumn.
