Akiyoshido Cave is one of the prefecture’s representative tourist attractions and a national special natural treasure. For this event, the cave will be fantastically illuminated with colored lighting and sound that differs from the usual white. The lighting designer Mikiko Ishii, who was in charge of lighting up the Tokyo Tower and the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge, will be in charge of the production.
The Akiyoshidai Tourist Exchange Center, located by the main entrance of Akiyoshido Cave, will hold a special “Christmas Gara-pon” lottery from December 21 to 25 (visitors must bring their entrance ticket for the day of the lottery).
