23rd November 2008, viewing autumn foliage "Momiji-gari" at Kyoto's KIYOMIZU TEMPLE.

As Japan enters into late autumn, the nights rapidly become chilly and the leaves begin turning red and yellow. People head to the mountains in search of the vibrantly coloured leaves, this is called "momiji-gari", which literally means "hunting for autumn leaves". Many people especially visit the ancient capital of Kyoto and other sites famous for autumn foliage.
