We got so hyped up for the opening day on December 1 and headed straight there!
As soon as we arrived, the glittering lights made my spirits sparkle, too.
It’s so much fun just walking through the light displays, and there are so many spots that make you want to stop and take photos! Encountering all the different dinosaurs and ancient things like pyramids and a sphinx, and enjoying tasty food options—it’s an experience that brings big smiles to both kids and adults!
It’s running until Christmas Day, so why not come and check it out?
The holiday season in Japan doesn’t mean that people take extra time off. Christmas Eve is when couples enjoy their date night, and beautiful illuminations are a huge draw. Of course, many people also enjoy the lights with friends and family throughout the “holiday season.” Christmas Day is seen as a time for family, but isn’t it interesting that our go-to party foods are often fried chicken and sponge cake with lots of cream?
