It was very hot at the beginning of October, but the temperature suddenly dropped toward the end of the month.
Now in November, you can see the beautiful autumn foliage all around the Aso area. Personally, I especially love the majestic, long-lived ginkgo trees with their bright yellow, fan-shaped leaves.
Today, I’d like to introduce some of my favorite ginkgo spots in Aso 😊
