So I would like to introduce these places.

1.Showa-memorial-park （昭和記念公園）
This park is located in Tachikawa.
At this park,I met this awsome autmnleaves landscape!!

Near the Japanese garden, there were so unique garden.
It was 「Bonsai-garden」
.
Do you know Bonsai?

It is small tree and planted small potted plant.
And these trees are exhibited in the room or garden for ornamentat.
There were many cute Bonsai!!
Orange bounsai!
This park is really broad, therefore this park has 2 transportation.
Inside bus and reatal bike.
When I left,I used this bus.
Best time of autmn-leaves at this park is said during middle of Norvember and first of December.
So I went at 24th Novemver.
However...I felt it was littele late...
Some leaves had fallen...
But many atrraction were there,so I could spend good time!!
2.Meiji Jingu Gaien(明治神宮外苑)
Here is the most popular autmn-leves places in Tokyo!!
Althought I was looking forward...
There still remained green leaves...
Actually this time was littel early.. Even thought,I visited best season..
Commonly,best time is said between middle of November and fisrt of December.
These trees had so unique forms like witch hats!!
Trees were lined up so long.
There were 146 trees!!

According to this autumn leaves, at Meiji jingu gaien held 「Ichou(Gikgo) festival」.
Various local foods were brought togethere as well as people!
Finally
When is the best time of Tokyo autumn leaves??
I went to 2 places seeking for answer...
Showa-memorial-park（昭和記念公園）
Meiji Jingu Gaien(明治神宮外苑)
Both area were said best time was between middle of November and first of December.
So I went these placese at 24st,25st November.
Desipite of it,I missed best scenery of autumnleaves..
Showa-memorial-park was little late,Meiji Jingu Gaien was little early.
So I found there were no clear answer.
And if I missed best time, I could enjoy there by atmosphere,other atrractuon or events!!
