Oyada-jinja Shrine's Maple Valley

Selected as one of the 33 most beautiful destinations for fall foliage in the Hida-Mino area, many huge Japanese mountain maples grow in Oyada-jinja Shrine's Maple Valley, and the 90 hectare area extending from the stone steps leading to the shrine's main building is designated a National Natural Monument. The shrine itself is an Important Cultural Property, and the elegant, beautiful scenery created by the interweaving of its extravagant carved and painted structures with the autumn leaves is well-worth seeing.
