About this event
At Mae Aso Shrine in Yamae Village, Kuma District, Kumamoto Prefecture, a giant ginkgo tree said to be over 400 years old turns a brilliant golden color in autumn, reaching its peak foliage. The stunning contrast between the vermilion torii gate and the golden ginkgo creates a scenic view unique to the autumn season. Founded in 1728 (Kyoho 13), this historic shrine charms visitors with its picturesque landscape.
