Metasequoia trees line
Makino Town boasts a 2.4km avenue lined with 500 Metasequoia (dawn redwood) trees. At this time of year, the area is blanketed in beautiful fresh green foliage. Compared to autumn colours, the foliage here isn't a vivid crimson, which sometimes leads to it being listed as a disappointing tourist spot. However, the contrast between the green and the blue sky is truly splendid. You can go horse riding or take a carriage ride along the tree-lined avenue. Please note that you cannot park on the roadside and use the car park at the entrance to the avenue.
