Momijidani Park

Momijidani Park, located right next to Kintai Bridge, was created on the site of several temples that had been there since the Edo period. In the past, this area was called "Teradani" (Temple Valley), and many temples were gathered here. This elegant park is always quiet and calm, and the maples, both in their fresh green leaves and in their autumn leaves, are a delight to the eyes of tourists. There are about 1,000 maples and other trees in the park, including the adjacent Kikko Park, and when they are in full bloom, they are colored in vibrant shades of vermilion and orange.
