Mejiro Garden is recommended to visit through the year as it displays the beautiful scenery in each season, but the best time to visit the garden is perhaps during autumn leaves season from mid November to early December. The scenery of colourful autumn leaves in the traditional Japanese garden is simply breathtaking. Mejiro Garden is normally open till 17:00 (19:00 in July and August), however, during the peak season of autumn leaves viewing, the garden is open at night for the special autumn leaves light-up event. The autumn leaves and the garden will be decorated with fascinating lights. When it’s not windy, you can appreciate the reflection of the lit-up leaves on the pond just like a mirror.
The “Autumn Garden Light-Up” will be held for 9 days from 23 November to 1 December 2019, everyday from 17:30 to 21:00 (the last entrance 20:30). The admission fee for the special light-up event is 200 yen. During the period, there will be hot drink service and other special events including Rakugo show and small concerts.
