Among the many signs of autumn’s arrival is the changing leaves, and the transition from green to red, orange, and yellow can feel like a skilled artist painted over the scenery with their brush. In Japan, ginkgo trees are an especially common sight during the fall; when you tread on their characteristic leaves lining the road like a golden carpet, you can’t help but feel like royalty!

Get ready to feast your eyes upon these beautiful fluttering leaves guaranteed to brighten your day!
