With the arrival of November, the fall foliage at Togyoan in Yoshida, Shimonoseki is approaching its peak. Well known as the resting place of Takasugi Shinsaku, Togyoan（東行庵） showcases breathtaking scenery during this season. Each year from early to late November, the maple trees on the temple grounds turn vivid shades of red and gold, attracting many visitors from both inside and outside Shimonoseki City.

The gardens of Togyoan are especially popular in autumn, when people gather to admire the spectacular display of fall foliage. The best time to view the colorful leaves is usually around November. During this period, the temple grounds are covered with vivid red leaves. Visitors can enjoy walks beneath the vibrant trees, taking photos, and experiencing the lively atmosphere surrounded by various shades of red unique to this time of year.

While Togyoan offers charming scenery throughout the year such as camellias（椿） from January to March, plum blossoms（梅） from February to March, irises（菖蒲） from late May to mid-June, and sasanqua camellias（山茶花） from October to January the fall foliage is truly the highlight of the year. For those hoping to experience the natural hue of Japanese autumn in Shimonoseki, Togyoan is a must-visit destination during this colorful time of year.
