Yakushi-ike Park Autumn Illumination 2024

Kanagawa's Yakushi-ike Park is a natural paradise throughout the year, but many would agree that the autumn months are particularly lovely. From mid to late November, visitors can take full advantage of this – the park is hosting an illumination event which will light up Taiko Bridge and the maple trees surrounding the pond. On windless nights, the park will also use fog machines to create even more of an ethereal atmosphere.

In addition, the large gingko tree at the neighboring Yakushido Temple will also be adorned with lights.
