[Shinagawa Ward Ikedayama Park] Lighting event “Autumn Foliage Lights – Miakashi

2022.11.19

From November 26 to December 4, 2022, a light-up event “Tomei – Miakashi” will be held at Ikedayama Park in Shinagawa Ward. Visitors can enjoy the “expression” of an extraordinary world that emerges after weaving together all five elements: a “story” created by unraveling the location, history, and ceremony, “light and darkness”, “Japanese colors”, “movement and change” and the “pause” calculated to the second that connects these elements.

Depending on the coloring of the maple leaves that symbolize Ikedayama Park, several to several dozen different color temperatures of light are used to warm the reddish leaves and make the greenish leaves more vivid, while creating a three-dimensional effect and depth to the trees. The light also creates a three-dimensionality and depth to the trees, making Ikedayama Park more beautifully colored at night.

In addition, incense is placed at several locations in the park to create a space that can be enjoyed not only visually, but also with all five senses, including the sense of smell and the sound of water. In addition to the gradation of light around the pond, which changes every few minutes, candlelight will be placed in the dark corridors to guide visitors safely and fantastically into the park.

We invite you to enjoy the “Toumyo-Miakashi,” a space where you can feel the autumn leaves reflected in the beautiful gradation of light and faint fragrance, guided by the pale light of the candlelight, through the five senses.

Date: November 26th (Sat) to December 4th (Sun), 2022
Park opens from 17:30 to closes at 20:30
Time: 17:30〜20:30

[Hoshinoya Tokyo] “New Year’s Kabuki Stay” brings the hospitality of an Edo Period theatrical teahouse to the present day.

Hoshinoya Tokyo, a Japanese-style inn located in Otemachi, Tokyo, will again this year host the “New Year Kabuki Stay” program, a two-day and one-night stay from January 5 to 26, 2024.
For people living in Edo, one of their New Year’s pleasures was to watch Kabuki, and it was a chic way to spend the New Year. Theatrical teahouses supported this way of enjoying Kabuki. In addition to arranging tickets to the theater, the teahouses delighted patrons by providing a complete range of services, including plot notes, tea, sweets, makunouchi box lunches, and snacks and drinks (*1). Hoshinoya Tokyo offers a stay to celebrate the New Year with hospitality similar to the theatrical teahouses of the time.

Shinjuku Gyoen, one of Tokyo’s most famous gardens, is one of the few places in the city where visitors can enjoy the autumn leaves. The 200-meter-long rows of plane trees, the best maple tree spot in the city, Momijiyama, and the “Middle Pond,” with its spectacular reflection in the pond, will offer a world where the autumn leaves of Shinjuku Gyoen and Naked’s art and food are fused together.
