I would like to introduce the famous autumn festival "Kouran-kei Momiji Matsuri"(香嵐渓もみじ祭り). This festival is held Toyota city in Aichi prefecture and the month is November. The more information about this festival is here. If you want to go to this festival, this website will tell you how to go there. Kouran-kei is the road that Tomoe river to a temple Koujaku-ji.
The road is fulled with the maple and cedar trees. So when it comes to autumn, the maple leaves turn into red and at night the leaves will be lighted up. That's very beautiful views.There are many street stalls along the road. You can eat a lot of kind of food Francfort, Yakisoba and enjoy gold fish scooping, target shooting, and so on.
