Hello everyone! 

Navio here.
It's all yellow, orange, and red here in Japan. 
The long awaits finally over. 
After struggling, bearing the cold weather, the day finally came.

My favourite time to go to watch the golden leaves. 
The last week of November. 

 

I went to the Shinjuku Imperial Park/ Shinjuku Gyoen again this year. 
On today's article, I am going to share with you guys my favourite spot inside the Shinjuku Gyoen.

 

But first, all you guys have to do is buy a ticket. 
Do not worry, they put small instructions written in English, right below the Japanese ones. 
The ticket will only cost us ¥200. 
As you can see, there is a small QR Code printed on the ticket.
All you have to do is to place the QR Code right above the scanner on the main gate, and the door will automatically open. 
Welcome!

 

Here is a photo of my friends in an uncomfortable position, for the sake of taking a nice photo from a good angle. haha. 
As you can see, the surroundings are light brown and orange, with a little touch of yellow. 
Autumn is really beautiful, isn't it?

 

OH! 
I almost forget about my favourite spot. 
So here it is. 
Take a left from the main gate and keep on going straight.
The time you say "wow", please stop and take a lot of photos. 
That is my favourite spot. 
Why "wow"? 
As you can see, this area is covered by big trees, with golden leaves. 
And even though there were a lot of dead-but-beautiful leaves scattered on the ground, the trees still had more leaves that's sticking on it's

 

This place is just perfect for spending your time with your good friends.
There is one bench located right below those trees. 
Have a sit and enjoy. 
Or take a lot of photos, make awesome videos, and so many fun things to do in such beautiful place. 
The choice is yours :)

 

Here is a photo of me skating through the golden leaves. 
How I love the sound the dry leaves make when the wheels of my skateboard went through.

Or something like that, haha :)

As I told you guys before, the sunset come faster than usual, so I really recommend you guys to go there before 4 / 5 PM. 
The faster the better.
The closest station is Shinjuku Station, please take the South Exit.
