Saitama’s pop culture-focused shopping mall, hotel and museum Tokorozawa Sakura Town is celebrating the holiday season with beautiful illuminations until February 2023. The area surrounding the centre’s 12m-tall koyamaki (Japanese umbrella pine) tree is lit with LED lights and projectors, while the exterior of the neighbouring building is illuminated with a gradient of colours inspired by soap bubbles.
Other areas, including the Kadokawa Culture Museum, will also have their own illuminations installed from December 3. And while you’re in the area, don’t forget to visit the permanent outdoor teamLab exhibit in Higashi Tokorozawa Park, right beside Sakura Town.
The illuminations take place daily until 10pm.
