Kyoto Arashiyama Hanatouro 2010

Kyoto Arashiyama Hanatouro 2010

Term: 12/10-12/19

Lit-up Time: 5 p.m. - 8:30 p.m.

Taking advantage of the nature, waterfront, bamboo forest and historical cultural assets of the Saga Arashiyama region, walkway totaling approximately 5.2 km is rendered from the light of open air lanterns, whose shades and shadows imbue Japanese sentiment, and the blossoms of voluminous flower arrangement pieces. The created effect is a pathway that naturally beckons one to walk.

All bamboo forest walkways will be lit up from Nonomiya-jinjya Shrine to Okouchi Sanso Villa, rendering a fantastical scene.

With cooperation from Kyoto Ikebana Association, voluminous flower arrangement pieces will be on display at 8 locations along the light and blossoms pathway.
