From December 10 until December 19, the entire forest comes to life with special light installations and illuminations.

The projection was designed by artist Ryotaro Muramatsu, founder of the collective.

To top things off, there is a special event to send glowing lanterns into the sky.

There is a small fee to participate in the Arashiyama Sky Lantern event and booking is essential.

The next lantern event will take place on December 18 and December 19 at 7 p.m.

If you find yourself in Kyoto, it’s an opportunity that’s not to be missed.
