Japan: Icho Namiki Ginkgo Avenue 2012-11-24


The Japanese have a profound appreciation for all things seasonal, including the changing of the leaves as summer slides into the chilly grip of winter. To celebrate, Yuka & A-chan and I went to Icho Namiki, a street lined with resplendent ginkgo trees who's leaves turn a stunning shade of yellow.


Braving the sleepy crowds, we met up and began our adventure!
