Journeys in Japan S2011E37 - The Flavor of Autumn

In this journey, Michael Rivas will be taking a two-day trip to Yamagata Prefecture in autumn. He will be enjoying magnificent views from Hōjusan Risshakuji Temple, one of the major tourist spots of the Tohoku region, and exquisite seasonal dishes in an onsen hot spring inn, an authentic wooden architecture in Ginzan-onsen. He will also take a stroll through the onsen streets in the evening, illuminated by gaslights, and spend a heart-warming time meeting the local people on a Mogami River boat tour.
