About this event
The approximately 400-meter tree-lined avenue leading to the Trappist Monastery in Hokuto City, Hokkaido, is adorned with magical illumination ahead of Christmas. Enjoyed amidst silence, its charm lies in scenery distinct from bustling urban light displays. Held as part of Hokuto City's winter event "Hokuto Light Corridor," the lights are traditionally turned on from December 17 to 24, between 16:00 and 20:00. Especially on December 24, the warm glow of handmade wax candles is added, wrapping the surroundings in soft light. During the period, a "Night View Train" offering views of the nightscape from dimmed train cars is also scheduled to operate. Admission is free, and no reservation is needed.
