  • Himawari a Ssociation 秋号
    北九州国際交流協会 K itakyushu I nternational Himawari A ssociation 秋号 In this edition of HIMAWARI: Autumn Edition All about Autumn in KitaQ, Food, Sports, the International 2011 Autumn Festival in Yahata and other Lifestyle Information! Of the four seasons, autumn is probably the favorite in Japan. Autumn, or aki in Japanese, means many in Japan: it’s the season for sports, and also the season for reading, but autumn also means an increased ap- petite, the season for autumn leaves. There are also many more ways to enjoy autumn in Japan, that is to say here in Kitakyushu. In this edition of Himawari we will introduce some of these ways to you, and we hope you will spend a great autumn season here in Kitakyushu. We will start with the autumn leaves (koyo). If you have been in Japan more than 6 month, you will definitely remember the cherry blossoms. Generally, to Japanese, the colorful leaves are to autumn what cherry blossoms are to spring. The leaves turn into beautiful red, orange and yellow colors, and while the air is mild and fresh, you can enjoy some outdoor activities after the humid summer. Thus, you can imagine that many tourists visit Japan in the autumn. Some places might therefore, become quite crowded, but there are less crowded places where you can enjoy nature and take stunning pictures. Old temples and shrines are especially great places to visit during the autumn foliage season. Usually starting in mid September, the “koyo-front” moves from Hokkaido southward until it reaches Kyushu (usually in November).
