Kyoto, Autumn Leaves Time: A Story Told Through Colors

Kyoto's Autumn Foliage: A Story Told Through Colors

Autumn in Kyoto is the season when colors begin to speak.
Red, orange, gold—each leaf weaves a story with the wind.
The way he speaks is not through a voice, but through the space within silence.
Here you can see the "eyes on the invisible" that WABISUKE values.

Silence residing in a famous autumn foliage spot

• Tofukuji Temple and Tsutenkyo Bridge The autumn leaves seen from the bridge over the valley look like a sea of ​​brocade.
The moment the presence of people disappears, you can almost hear the rustling of leaves.
• Eikando Zenrinji Temple A famous spot known as "Eikando of the Maple Leaves."
The autumn leaves reflected in the pond are like a mirror world where top and bottom blend together.
The silence gently touches the depths of your heart.
• Arashiyama, Togetsukyo Bridge The colorful mountains along the Katsura River.
Every time the wind blows, the leaves flutter and it feels like time is unwinding.
Once you leave the bamboo forest path, signs of autumn await you.

Autumn leaves at night: an illusion of light and shadow

In autumn, temples in Kyoto begin to light up.
The moment the autumn leaves emerge from the darkness, they take on a different look than they do during the day.

• At the illumination of Kodaiji Temple, the autumn leaves reflected in the dry landscape garden create a fantastical world.
• When visiting Kiyomizu-dera Temple at night, the autumn leaves seen from the stage look like something out of a dream.

The space where light and shadow intersect is like a gap in time.
On autumn nights, stories lie in the silence.

What autumn leaves teach us

Autumn leaves are not just beautiful.
It is something that teaches us the beauty of change, the courage to let go, and the depth of time.
They change color, scatter, and return to the earth - in this cycle,
Our activities also quietly overlap.

This season is in line with WABISUKE's philosophy.
Autumn in Kyoto is a journey that sharpens your senses,
It's a place that gently gives shape to feelings that can't be put into words.
