Introducing the illumination spots of Kagawa in 2021

2021.12.13

The illumination event “Winter Fantasy” will be held again this year at “National Sanuki Manno Park” in Kagawa Prefecture, a space where one side is surrounded by light. In addition, we will introduce fireworks spots that rise in the winter night sky.

The appearance changes depending on the place to watch, so it’s exciting just to walk in the park, but there are still some points I would like to recommend. One is the illumination of the huge artificial waterfall “Shoryu no Taki” with a head of 9m, which is also selected as “Shikoku 88 Views”, the other is the “Champagne Tower” using 4,900 glasses, and the height is 10m. It is the “symbol tree” of.
