Komoro Joshi Kaiko-en Autumn Foliage Festival 2024

Update: 2024.10.16

Komoro Joshi Kaiko-en Autumn Foliage Festival 2024

With the arrival of autumn, Kaiko-en, the jewel of Komoro, will be dressed in the vivid colors of autumn leaves. Experience the breathtaking beauty of Komoro City, only two hours away from Tokyo, Chiba, and Saitama.

Spectacular view of autumn leaves

From late October to mid-November, Kaiko-en Garden is enveloped in the colors of autumn. Maples, ginkgo, zelkova, and other trees turn red, yellow, and orange, creating a stunning contrast with the moss-covered stone walls that have been in place for over 400 years. In particular, the autumn leaves around "Momijigaoka" are a must-see, and the scenery looks like a painting.

Autumn Foliage Festival 2024

The Komoro Joshi Kaiko-en Autumn Foliage Festival will be held again this year from October 19 to November 17.

Various events are scheduled during the period, such as a grass flute class and sightseeing guide, to make your autumn foliage viewing experience even more enjoyable.

Nighttime Attractions

The highlight of this year's event is the lighting up at night.

Visitors can enjoy the fantastic night view of the autumn leaves, which is different from that of the daytime. The area around Momijigaoka is beautifully illuminated, creating a fascinating view that differs from that of the daytime.

Family-friendly children's amusement park and zoo

Kaiko-en offers not only autumn foliage, but also a full range of facilities for the whole family to enjoy all day long.

A children's playground and a zoo (partially closed) are available for those with children.

Kaiko-en Zoo

Access

IT IS ONLY A 3-MINUTE WALK FROM KOMORO STATION OR A 5-MINUTE DRIVE FROM THE KOMORO INTERCHANGE ON THE JOSHINETSU EXPRESSWAY.

Parking is also available.

Hospitality from Nakadanasou

Nakadanasou is located right next to Kaikoen Garden, making it an ideal base for viewing the autumn leaves.

Spend a long autumn evening soaking in the hot springs, and wake up early the next morning to view the autumn leaves shrouded in morning mist...why not enjoy such a luxurious time?

We recommend that you make reservations as early as possible, as we expect crowds during the fall foliage season. We look forward to seeing you soon.
