Arashiyama Hanatouro

The “bamboo grove path” from Nomiya Shrine to Okochi Sanso Garden, the Watarigetsu Bridge, the foot of the mountains, the waterfront, and the surrounding area, as well as the natural and historical cultural heritage of Saga and Arashiyama, will be transformed into a fantastic space with approximately 2,500 open-air lanterns and other “lights”.

In the “Ikebana Promenade,” created with the cooperation of the Kyoto Ikebana Association, the “Road of Lights and Flowers” will be decorated with magnificent works in large vases created by the heads of various ikebana schools. Every year, many tourists visit Arashiyama to enjoy the winter season.
