Landscape of Autumn colors at the Shirabiso Highlands in Nagano Pref.

It is at the end of October, mountains whose height above sea level are about 1000m in Central Japan are at their best in Autumn colors. I went to The Shirabiso Highlands on Oct.30 in 1999. It is about 1800m above sea level. Some trees have already lost their leaves. We could really enjoy brilliant Autumn colors.


We can see the Southern Alps in the north-east direction.
