Autumn is here.

There are autumn leaves in Otaru.

Many students visit for a school trip in Otaru in October.

They mainly take a photo in front of Otaru Canal.

We hope they can make wonderful memories.

In Japan, we say Autumn is the best season for eating, reading, sports and art.

What about your country?
