Lined with over 500 towering metasequoia trees, the avenue transforms with the seasons, offering a lush green tunnel in summer, vibrant golden hues in autumn, and a magical, snow-covered landscape in winter. Popular with photographers, cyclists, and nature lovers, this peaceful stretch is perfect for a scenic drive or a leisurely stroll. The serene beauty of the Metasequoia trees makes this avenue a must-visit destination for anyone exploring the Takashima area.
