Persimmons of the Yamanobe no Michi

When peeled, the orange flesh shines with freshness. One bite, and a melting sweetness spreads throughout your mouth—these are Nara's persimmons, grown along Japan's oldest road. The 'Yamanobe no Michi,' which continues from Tenri, is a historic path whose name remains in ancient texts. Along this route, varieties such as Fuyu and Tonewase hang heavy with fruit. In autumn, it serves as a popular walking course where fresh persimmons can be purchased at unmanned sales stands. Nara is one of Japan's leading regions for persimmon production. Enjoying a single fruit while walking the ancient path is truly exceptional. There is even a saying, 'When persimmons turn red, doctors turn blue,' reflecting their nutrient-rich autumn bounty. Please enjoy this rich harvest alongside the historic path.
