Where Mountain Warmth Meets River Memories: Autumn Awakenings in Yorii
As the Arakawa River leaves the Chichibu mountains to greet the open plains, Yorii rests gently at the threshold of mountain and plain. In November, the terraced slopes of Fuppu are adorned with ripe, golden mikan citrus, filling the autumn air with sweet fragrance. From the forested earthworks of historic Hachigata Castle to the retro lanes of the old post town near the station, cool autumn breezes carry gentle smiles and warm greetings. It is a season to slow down, savoring local heritage and the fertile harvest woven through everyday life.
