Yoyogi Park : Nov. 2, 2014








The Yoyogi Park, one of the most popular parks in Tokyo, was temporary closed in August because of dengue fever. Mosquitoes infected by dengue virus were found in the park. The Tokyo Metropolitan government banned people enter the place.

The gates opened again in Late October (about three months after the closure). As a lover of the the park, I immediately visited there.

The leaves turned yellow (top picture). Many people were there. They enjoyed jogging, walking, and spending their times on the lawn or benches (2nd from the top).

New dog-run fields were open. Large and small dogs were running happily. The owners enjoyed talks.

I moved to neighboring Meiji Shrine. An autumn festival was held. The traditional music was played with Shakuhachi (Japanese flute), Koro (Japanese harp) and other traditional instruments.

They also held an exhibition of chrysanthemum.

Autumn deepened.
