As dusk falls near Tokyo, an entirely different enchantment awakens: the spectacular world of winter illuminations.
Winter illuminations transform parks, city streets, and even amusement parks into dreamlike landscapes. It’s pure romance for couples – strolling hand-in-hand beneath tunnels of shimmering gold. It’s a wide-eyed wonder for families and friends exploring fantastical scenes.
Voted Japan’s best nighttime illumination spot, Ashikaga Flower Park becomes a world of fantasy during the winter months. The 5 million bulbs in the park light up to create magical ‘rose’ and ‘lily’ gardens. Now with the new Flower Castle, visitors enjoy a true Cinderella experience.
Take a trip to discover the beauty of Japan at Wakayama Farm’s Bamboo Winter Lights. Imagine being surrounded by thousands of softly lit bamboo stalks, creating a warm, intimate atmosphere.
Don’t miss the Yunishigawa Snow Igloo Light Festival in February! The village, Yunishigawa, is where the Heike clan escaped their pursuers 800 years ago and is full of history. Experience a magical feeling where hundreds of small Kamakura (Japanese Snow Igloo) lights surround you in a mysterious atmosphere
