Continuing with the recent trend of dazzling nighttime projection mapping events, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government and digital creative company Hitohata are putting on a similar showcase along the Edo Castle moat between Ichigaya and Iidabashi stations from May 30 to June 2.
Set to begin at 7.30pm, the projection mapping display will feature a variety of ukiyo-e motifs along the 100m-long moat wall until 9pm. Highlights include woodblock print-inspired animation of cherry blossoms and koi fish; the latter is a nod to the metropolitan government’s ongoing efforts to clean up and revitalise the moat.
We recommend catching the projection mapping show from Sotobori Park near Hosei University for the best unobstructed views.
