Himeji Castle has several illumination events throughout the year. For 2024, the winter illumination event will have the title “Himeji Castle History Kyoka Suigetsu’, a proverb which roughly translates to ‘flowers reflected on a mirror and the moon reflected on the water’s surface’.
Some of the illuminations you will be able to see include a moonlit garden, a water mirror, and illuminated street. Note that the admission fee is ¥1,000 for adults.
Organizers may cancel events, alter schedules, or change admission requirements without notice. Always check official sites before heading to an event.Late
