November, the best time to come and visit

Although Japan moves almost seamlessly from Trick or Treat to Santa Claus, early November is undoubtedly the best time of Year to visit. The summer heat has passed and taken it's humidity with it. The weather is cool and dry and without any significant holidays, roads and trains are calm and comfortable. But the best has to be when you have the chance to travel to the mountains. The forests of central Japan have turned to scarlet. There are few sights better in life.
