The best time to see the autumn leaves on the Mogami River Boat Ride in Tozawa Village, which is known as one of Yamagata Prefecture's leading tourist spots, is bustling with tourists from inside and outside the prefecture.
Mogami River Boat Ride is one of the most popular tourist spots in Yamagata Prefecture, and is visited by many tourists because you can enjoy magnificent scenery throughout the year, such as mountain cherry blossoms in spring and snowy landscapes in winter.
Autumn leaves are at their best at this time of year, and on the 9th, more than 100 people visited not only from within the prefecture but also from Hokkaido and Tokyo.
Tourists boarding the boat take pictures of the red and yellow autumn leaves on both sides of the river while listening to the Mogami River boat song sung by the boatman. I was enjoying myself.
Mr. Toru Yamashina, the boatman, said, "We can still enjoy the autumn leaves, so we are waiting for everyone to come."
According to the company that operates the boat tour, the autumn leaves on the Mogami River boat tour can be enjoyed until the middle of this month.
