About this event
The event "Enjoy the Geminids and the Stars" will be held at Ikoma Sanroku Park to observe the stars shining in the winter night sky. With minimal moonlight this year, conditions are ideal for observing the Geminid meteor shower. A starry sky guide will provide detailed commentary, making it accessible and enjoyable even for first-time stargazers and families with children. In addition to observing the night sky filled with many shooting stars, there will also be an opportunity to observe other celestial bodies such as Saturn through a telescope. Visitors will be able to fully enjoy the clear winter night sky. Alternative programs are prepared in case of rain or cloudy weather. "Starry Sky Lantern Making" will also be held from 18:00 on the same day, allowing visitors to enjoy both activities together.
