Korankei Gorge (Asuke, Toyota City, Japan)

FOR KRISTINE JOY. In 1634, the Buddhist priest Sanei from the Kojakuji Temple planted the first maple/momiji trees that have made Asuke. The momiji leaves should have been bright red when we came but we were told that because of global warming, this had been delayed by 2 weeks since 2 years ago.
