<p>Vivid autumn colors brighten up Kitaro Inari Shrine! It's a small shrine, yet so beautiful</p>

<p>While climbing Mt. Maizuru you'll find many cats! This one let me go near her and take photos! I think she actually enjoyed it</p>

<p>When climbing Mt. Maizuru, you'll notice some small paths like this one every now and then</p>

<p>Different types of trees can be seen and admired at Mt. Maizuru</p>

The residents of Tendo consider Mt. Maizuru to be the symbol of the city. Also known as Tendo Park, Mt. Maizuru is perfect for hiking. If you decide to visit the city in autumn then you'll have the chance to walk through nature and admire its beauties.

I wonder how beautiful this mountain might be during spring time when the cherry trees are at their peak and in full bloom. What an excellent reason to visit Tendo again!
