紅葉の時期がやってきましたね!今回は佐世保を代表する紅葉の名所3カ所を、1日で回れるルートをご紹介します。

10:00 am: Leave Sasebo Station for Megane-iwa | 佐世保駅~眼鏡岩

Take National Route 35 towards the city hall. The road will lead to National Route 204. Go straight for a while, you will soon pass the Saikai High School. Just after you pass Yoshimurachozai Pharmacy(よしむら調剤薬局), turn left onto a narrow road (there will be a sign saying 眼鏡岩 on the corner). When you see another signboard saying “眼鏡岩公園”, turn right.

At Megane-iwa park, you will see the stunningly beautiful autumn leaves of ginkgoe trees! 眼鏡岩公園では銀杏の紅葉が楽しめますよ!
