Spring Light-up of Hamarikyu Onshi Teien

Starting from March 20th, we have illuminated the rape blossoms, someiyoshino, and yaezakura in Hamarikyu Onshi Teien at each flowering time.
The illuminations are carefully designed to enhance the features of the flowers, and they attracted the garden visitors.
(Hosted by Tokyo Metropolitan Park Association, Cooperation by Martin Professional Japan, Tokyo Butai Showmei, and Kobayashidenso.)
We added a subtle touch to our illumination by using shining golden color, the color of the rape blossoms, in the illuminations of the "300-year old pine tree" and the "Otsutaibashi Bridge" since the rape blossoms were illuminated for the first time.

This year, 12 garden lanterns with ink-paintings of various flowers added an extra touch of class to the Spring Light-up of Hamarikyu Onshi Teien. The paintings were specially drawn by Kazue Kuyama, a painter famous for books such as "The Four Seasons of Oze," and "36 Views of Mt.Fuji in Wash Drawings."
