Iwashimizu Hachimangu

Iwashimizu Hachimangu, a Shinto shrine, is considered one of Japan's top three Hachimangu shrines. In autumn, the entirety of Mt. Otoko, the mountain on which the shrine's grounds sprawl, is dyed yellow and crimson, and the view of this from the local cable car is beautiful. In most years the best time to enjoy the foliage is mid-November.
