Hokkaido University Ginkgo Avenue

Approximately a five-minute walk from Kitajunijo Station on the subway Namboku Line, this popular site for yellow leaves is located on Kita-Jusanjo Street inside Hokkaido University. There are 70 ginkgo trees that line both ends of the street that stretches for around 380 meters from east to west, and they are dyed a brilliant yellow from late October to the beginning of November. Because many tourists visit during this time, there are times when the street is closed to vehicular traffic to ensure safety. The Hokkaido University Golden-leaf Festival is held on the last weekend of October, and besides stalls, the street is illuminated from six to nine in the evening.
