You can refer to this time before traveling, it is very accurate and informative.

On the main island, cherry blossoms can be seen starting from about the end of March (Kyoto) from south to north. The further north you go, the later you will see them.

Many friends will go to Kansai on November 1st in the hope of seeing red leaves, but Kansai needs to wait until the end of November to see maple leaves!

Big cities in cherry blossom season and maple leaf season such as Hotels in Kyoto and Tokyo are in short supply, so be sure to book in advance.
