Hitome Hakkei Area
Yabakei area
Yabakei is one of the three best places in Japan for viewing autumn leaves, along with Nikko and Arashiyama. The most spectacular of these is the "Hitome Hakkei" (Eight Views at a Glance), so named because it features eight strangely shaped rocks that can be seen at once. These spectacular views are dotted throughout the various areas of Yabakei, and the scenery that changes with the seasons, as well as the autumn leaves, makes a perfect driving course.
