Komoro Castle Ruins Kaikoen Autumn Leaves Festival 2026

About this event

Held at Komoro Castle Ruins Kaikoen in Komoro City, Nagano Prefecture, the 'Komoro Castle Ruins Kaikoen Autumn Leaves Festival 2026' is an event to enjoy the autumn foliage coloring the park grounds as autumn deepens. From around late October, maples, ginkgoes, and zelkova trees turn shades of red, yellow, and orange, creating beautiful scenery in contrast with stone walls boasting over 400 years of history. During the period, events such as the autumn foliage illumination, the Toshin Chrysanthemum Exhibition, and Autumn Light Komoro 2026 will be held concurrently, allowing visitors to enjoy the magical atmosphere of Momijigaoka at night. The grounds also feature a children's amusement park and a zoo, making it a spot where families can enjoy a full day. Highlights of the foliage include the view of Momijidani seen through the windows of the Kaiko Archery Hall and the vicinity of Momijidani spanned by Kuromon Bridge. Various events will take place throughout the period at the Chrysanthemum Exhibition, Otemon Park, and Machitane Square. Komoro Castle Ruins Kaikoen is a celebrated park harmonizing history and nature, landscaped in 1926 under the design of Dr. Seiroku Honda, an authority on landscape architecture, and selected among 'Japan's Top 100 Castles' in 1990.
