The trees in Kyoto are now turning deeper shades of red and yellow day by day, though they were slow to change color due to intense heat. The autumn leaves in the ancient capital are at their peak as momiji maple trees shine red in the late autumn sunlight and ginkgo trees decorate street corners with yellow. Even amid the newly termed “global boiling era,” the changing of seasons can still be felt by people.
