Japanese autumn in Asuke (SD)

Report

A Place in the Aichi prefecture famous for it`s red leaves in the autumn. From Asuke castle, you can get a good view of the rows of houses as well as the road leading to Shinshu and Mino, and even to Nagoya. Asuke is a town of just over 10,000 residents lying between verdant mountains in northeastern Aichi. In the Edo period (1603-1867) in particular, it thrived as a post town on the chumakaido highway, which was the route to transport to the inland the salt produced along the shores of Mikawa Bay in the 19th century. The town's streetscape still has many old houses. In fact most of the historic wooden buildings still standing are kept in good repair by the townspeople themselves, and almost all remain in use as homes, shops, or showplaces.
