Nishiyama Park in Imari is celebrated as one of Japan's top 100 autumn foliage sites, with more than 20,000 maple trees carpeting its slopes in vivid crimson and amber. The park's elevated terrain offers sweeping panoramic views over Imari city and the surrounding countryside. Evening illuminations during peak koyo season cast a magical glow over the colourful canopy. Light food stalls and tea vendors add a festive atmosphere to leisurely strolls along the park's winding paths.
