Brilliant maple leaves in vermilion

Orange leaves under the autumn blue sky

It was as though the hill was burning with red flame

Red and green in the cool autumn air

Orange leaves mixed with green leaves in the forest

Beautiful vermilion leaves in the green forest

Half bare maple tree burning red under the setting sun

Radiant autumn leaves under the setting sun

Dancing bare tree and red leaves in the late afternoon

Green, yellow, red, orange and dark bare trees

Red maple and a bare tree making a striking contrast

Artistic curve of a Japanese pine tree with red maple trees in the backdrop

Bare branches silhouetted against the blue autumn sky, waiting for the cold winter to come

At the end of the day in Nishiyama Park

Beautiful sunset seen from the top of the hill in Nishiyama Park

Nishiyama Park in Sabae city, Fukui, is famous for its gorgeous azaleas in May. But 50,000 azaleas is not the only thing that this park can boast about. Cherry blossoms are beautiful here in spring, and so are autumn leaves, which I truly learned when I first visited this park in mid November. The park was built in 1856 by the seventh lord of Sabae Han (feudal region), who made this park not for his family or for his subjects, but for the general public in Sabae. The park includes a few Japanese gardens, a zoo, and more, in a vast 560,000 ㎡ space with winding walking paths running through it. I visited at the peak of autumn season, but there weren't many people there. It's a great place to enjoy beautiful autumn leaves in Fukui!
