Saitama’s new pop culture-focussed shopping mall, hotel and museum is celebrating its one-year anniversary with beautiful illuminations until February 2022. From November 6, the area surrounding the centre’s 12m-tall koyamaki (Japanese umbrella pine) tree will be lit with LED lights and projectors, and the exterior of the building will be illuminated with a gradient of colours that will change from autumn to winter.
Other areas, including the Kadokawa Culture Museum, will also have their own illuminations installed from December 10. 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.
