Expo Commemorative Park in Suita was created on the site of the 1970 World Exposition and spans 260 hectares of meticulously maintained landscape. In autumn, around 5,500 trees including maples, ginkgos, and zelkovas put on a spectacular display of reds, yellows, and oranges. The park hosts an annual 'Autumn Leaves Festival' with food stalls and cultural events, and the surreal Tower of the Sun provides an unforgettable backdrop for foliage photography. The Japanese Garden within the park features a tea ceremony pavilion surrounded by maples.
