About this event
The "Candlelight Illumination in Aragijima The Final," held in Aridagawa Town, Wakayama Prefecture, is a magical event marking its final edition this year. Candles are lit inside 1,700 bamboo lanterns to celebrate the 20th birthday of His Imperial Highness Prince Hisahito. Visitors can enjoy the beautiful rural landscape of Aragijima where a special, one-day-only view unfolds. The warm candlelight reflects on the water in the terraced rice paddies, creating a mystical space completely different from the daytime. Please take this opportunity to fully experience the nighttime charm of Aragijima.
