Time Out says

Enjoy the perfectly shaped, sunset-yellow ginkgo trees that form a 300m-long boulevard between Gaienmae and Aoyama-Itchome stations. This is Tokyo’s quintessential autumn scenery, which has graced countless Instagram accounts. The best time to visit is between November 23 and December 1 when the leaves have turned fully yellow and are lit up in the evening.

The light up takes place daily between 4.30pm and 7.30pm.
