The National Takino Suzuran Hillside Park (247 Takino, Minami-ku, Sapporo) is holding a Autumn Leaves Festival to coincide with the autumn foliage season. As of October 16th, the fluffy kochia flowers have turned red, marking the peak of autumn foliage viewing.
The autumn foliage season in Takino has begun!
To coincide with the autumn foliage season, we will be holding the Autumn Foliage Festival from October 12th (Sat) to October 27th (Sun).
As the mornings and evenings become increasingly chilly, the kochia trees in the lower section of the central zone, "Flower Garden," are now at their peak of autumn color!

On sunny days early in the morning right after the park opens between early and late October, you can enjoy the fantastic sight of a beautiful rainbow over the famous waterfall, which has been selected as one of the "100 Best Waterfalls of Japan."
