About this event
The area around the Akizuki Castle Ruins in Asakura City, Fukuoka Prefecture, welcomes the beautiful season of autumn foliage. In particular, the contrast between the Kuromon (Black Gate), a prefectural designated tangible cultural property, and the vibrant colored maples is breathtaking, allowing visitors to enjoy the spectacular view while climbing the stone steps leading to Suiyo Shrine. The peak viewing season is typically from late November to early December, bustling with many tourists. Visitors can enjoy autumn leaf viewing alongside the charming streetscape of Akizuki, known as the "Little Kyoto of Chikuzen" as a former castle town.
