When hanami is celebrated under the stars

Every year, Rikugi-en holds its spring illuminations. Ten days of festivities during which the cherry blossoms reveal their most beautiful colors under the nocturnal lighting of the garden!

Cherry trees, lights, and moonlight

 

From late March to early April, Rikugi-en opens until 9 p.m. Nocturnal hours which thus offer visitors the possibility of admiring the cherry trees from a new angle: the softness of night lighting.

Indeed, on the occasion of the flowering of the sakura, the entire garden is illuminated!

Shades of pink, bluish tones, and lavender hues, it's a multitude of pastel colors that come each evening to illuminate the petals of cherry trees. A bucolic spectacle that ends at the back of the garden with the beauty of Rikugi-en's Shidarezakura, a pretty cherry tree 15 meters high and 20 meters wide!
