Japan Views: Showa Kinen Park Tokyo Autumn 2023 Illumination Night Walk

VIRTUAL JAPAN Films (November 17, 2023) – “Autumn Night Walk” was started with the idea of ​​utilizing the assets of Showa Kinen Park to convey the charm of the park at night. The “Katarai Ginkgo Trees” shine in golden light, and the “Japanese Garden” reflects the night scenery on the water surface.

Within the Japanese garden in the middles of Showa Kinen Park, there is a separate bonsai tree exhibit. Here many of the trees are 100 years old, and even one that is 300 years old! I didn’t know that there are so many different kinds of seasonal bonsai trees; Japanese maple bonsai with the read leaves, or trees with fruits and berries. If you ever come to visit Showa Kinen Park, please be sure to stop by to see these old souls.
