October 25, 2014 - Koyo In Japan - A Collection of Photos

For me, Koyo is probably the most amazing time to travel around Japan. There can be large crowds but most of the time you can be absolutely blessed in viewing some of the most amazing sceneries that you can ever see. As I no longer live in Japan and my current country seems to have a dearth of trees due to a harsh climate (Kazakhstan), I've decided to post a collect of different photos from my Koyo collection. They are not the best photos I have, but give a feel of why foreign guests should visit Japan in autumn for Koyo season. I'm also hoping that it will encourage many more people to post their own photos of autumn leaves in the next few weeks.
