Autumn Reflections :: Beautiful Japan #45
The beautiful Kōrankei Valley (香嵐渓). The leaves are so gorgeous, they can't help but admire themselves in the water.

Korankei is one of the most famous areas to see autumn leaves in this area. Occasionally it even makes national lists. It is a nature valley near Toyota City. It's beautiful year-round, but especially so in Autumn when the entire valley turns red, yellow, and various shades of orange.
Wonderful place, but often packed with tourists from all over Japan. There are only a few roads into the place (only 2 I think), so unless you get there early, you are looking at a traffic jam at least an hour long. When I go I usually catch the very first bus of the day at 5am, and so beat the rush. Yeah, it's early, but waiting much longer than that means sitting in traffic.
But it's worth it! Just look at those leaves!
