About this event

Held at the World Heritage Ainokura Gassho-zukuri Village in Nanto City, Toyama Prefecture, "Window Light Viewing Day" is an event where, unlike a special illumination/light-up, visitors can appreciate how regular everyday nighttime window lights warmly illuminate the village. The soft light shining in the dusk-wrapped village lets you experience a magical, atmospheric, and nostalgic Japanese landscape. Take this opportunity to enjoy the warm lit-up landscape rooted in the village's daily life, distinct from standard illuminations. Dates: Wednesday, October 7 & Wednesday, October 14, 2026; Wednesday, January 13 & Wednesday, January 27, 2027 Hours: From 17:00 until 20:00 (extended opening for designated areas only) Location: Ainokura Gassho-zukuri Village
