Starting from October, Japan is gradually dyed in shades of red by autumn foliage, and in Tokyo’s urban areas, besides enjoying the moving red leaf scenery, the golden ginkgo scenery is definitely not to be missed.

● Meiji Jingu Gaien

The ginkgo tree-lined avenue at Meiji Jingu Gaien in autumn is a widely renowned scenic spot in Tokyo for enjoying the fall foliage. With over a hundred tall ginkgo trees standing on both sides, it has become a popular choice for locals to visit during the fall season, often crowded on holidays, making it the most representative ginkgo-viewing spot in central Tokyo. The neatly lined ginkgo trees along the avenue turn completely golden, stretching about 300 meters, creating a breathtakingly beautiful layered scene.

● Showa Memorial Park

Located just over 30 minutes away by express train from Shinjuku Station, the national Showa Memorial Park is a great choice for those looking to escape the crowds at popular urban autumn foliage spots. Dominated by ginkgo trees, the park's 180 hectares are covered with yellow ginkgo leaves that carpet the ground like a golden rug, creating a poetic and picturesque scene where you can enjoy the rare spaciousness and greenery in central Tokyo.
