Illumination of autumn leaves that emerge vividly “Kyoto Okuzashiki / Kibune Momiji Lantern” event

2021.10.16

Kibune Shrine is the main shrine of the water gods, which enshrines the god of water, which is the source of life for all things, and counts 2,000 companies nationwide. From November 6th (Sat) to 28th (Sun), we will hold a light-up of autumn leaves, “Kyoto Okuzashiki / Kibune Momiji Lantern”. Please enjoy the vividly emerging autumn leaves.

The Eizan Electric Railway will be lit up at the “Maple Tunnel” between Ichihara Station and Ninose Station. Trains passing through the “Maple Tunnel” turn off the lights inside the train and operate at a slower speed. Last year, due to the impact of a landslide disaster, this section was suspended, but you can see the fantastically illuminated autumn leaves for the first time in two years.
