Autumn Colors Are Nearing Their Peak in Kyoto

The autumn colors are nearing their peak here in Kyoto.

Even though it was a cloudy, dreary Monday, there were lots of visitors at Tofukuji Temple today, which is famous for its maple trees. The colors are looking nice, although there is still a lot of green on the underside of the canopy.

If you want to visit the famous locations for the autumn colors, I recommend getting there early. The crowds can get insane.
