Winter Illumination in Japan is very famous and is an annual event. This time I had an opportunity to visit TokinoSumika resort to watch the illumination and it was fantastic !!
The Forest of Trees was created together with locals and wraps visitors in a magical fantasy land of lights underneath the shimmer of stardust. This trail of trees leads visitors to the next area, the Royal Palace on the Hill.
The “Versailles Lights” water laser show entertained onlookers with a rhythmic show. A new spot was also developed this year called “It’s a colourful world” where cuter balls of light change colour to the sounds that play. There’s also one of the world’s biggest “Bells of Love” clad in colours galore to radiate the dark night.
Spanning 370m along, the “Tunnel of Lights” changes colours as time passes, enveloping people in a sparkling galaxy of illuminations. There’ll be plenty of photo opportunities.
The 120-year-old fir tree at this site was decorated simply and gently, with more LED lights than ever before, to enhance its beauty.
There was paradise aquarium with around 4,500 goldfish of 200 species, including rare kinds, from all around Japan were collected here.
So, i have put up glimpses of my visit here. Please check it out.
I wish you all Merry Christmas and a very happy and safe New Year 2021.
