Did you know
The Japanese have a word for it - momijigari, the traditional Japanese custom of watching the changing colours of trees in autumn. People in Japan will flock to see the changing colours in Kyoto, where world leaders signed up to reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
However, rather than travelling to Japan, you can see the biggest collection of Japanese Maples at Westonbirt. Use the link in the list opposite to visit Westonbirt.
