As autumn arrives, it’s time to chase maple leaves again. But if foliage isn’t your thing, you can also enjoy breathtaking flower fields. InJapanW... County’s Hidaka City will host its annual Manjushage Festival from September 19 to October 4 this year.

The striking bright red Manjushage, also known as red spider lilies, grow on single straight stems with three to five reflexed petals blooming at the top. They typically flower around the autumn equinox each year. This year, five million of these vibrant blooms will transform the riverbank green spaces around Kinenada into a vivid crimson carpet, making it a major local event. During the festival period, nearby food stalls set up by local eateries offer delicious traditional dishes alongside flower viewing.
