In Sounkyo Gorge at the foot of the Daisetsuzan system in Hokkaido, the trees are dyed in vibrant colors and the best time to see the autumn leaves.

Sounkyo, at the foot of the Daisetsuzan system, is known as one of the most famous spots in Japan for the autumn foliage.

Over the past few days, the autumn foliage has progressed rapidly due to the difference in temperature between daytime and morning and evening.

The red rowan and yellow birch are brightly colored and are in full bloom.

Some tourists enjoyed the colorful scenery from the ropeway.

According to Sounkyo's nature experience facility, autumn leaves are moving at a slightly faster pace than usual and will peak in color next week.
