The cold winter is the season when illuminations shine. Why not go on a trip to enjoy illuminations without worrying about time? This time, we’re going to introduce our recommended illuminations events perfect for the nights spent in Sapporo, Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka where Hotel Gracery is located.
Sapporo where many tourist spots are draped in light
In Sapporo, ‘39th Sapporo White Illumination,’ one of Sapporo’s symbolic illumination events, and ‘18th German Christmas Market in Sapporo‘ are now in progress. Popular tourist spots in Sapporo are colored by various illuminations, such as Sapporo station square, Former Hokkaido Government Office Building and Odori Park. You can enjoy seeing stunning views while strolling around Sapporo.
Tokyo allowing you to enjoy illuminations before or after shopping and dinner
In Tokyo, there are lots of illumination spots where you can see a stunning view while walking, such as Ginza Namiki-dori which is a shopping district with many famous brand stores and Shinjuku Kuyakusho-dori in Kabukicho. Moreover, various illumination events are held at popular tourist spots, including ‘Blue Cave‘ at which Yoyogi Park takes on deep blue and ‘CITY LIGHT FANTASIA ~REIWA Lights in TOKYO~‘ at which Tokyo Tower offers a projection mapping and a sparkling night view.
Osaka & Kyoto whose historical buildings are colored by countless light
In Osaka, the central Osaka turns into the world of light thanks to ‘Festival of the lights in OSAKA.’ Especially, Midosuji Avenue where the brilliant illumination stretching for 4km embraces visitors and Central Public Hall on which light arts are projected are must-visit. In Kyoto next to Osaka, ‘Kyoto Hanatouro‘, ‘TWINKLE JOYO 2019‘ and so on are held, and countless lights illuminate historical spots with a solemn atmosphere. It looks like they’re floating in the dark sky.
