last month i went to tokyo. i went there in November which is the season for maple leaves. We went to a small town, one hour away from tokyo (and it took one hour from tokyo). There’s a lake near the mountain and a beautiful hot spring in the resort where we stayed for 2 days. We went to a place which is famous for maple trees lining a path. There are a lot of small stands, and local markets selling things and students playing music there. the meals are included in the accommodation fee so we have dinners in the resort. As well as this, you can have hot spring there, plus there is a roof and the hotel staff will remind you that you can have the best view of the mountain in the morning at 6 o’clock. They call you / they give you a wake-up call and you can go to the top of the roof to wait for the cloud to part / clear.
