About the event
The Hanatoro route connects Nagaoka Tenmangu’s great torii with Kinkeien, its autumn maple garden. Bamboo lights mark the approach while lighting brings the garden into focus after dusk. It offers a free evening stop outside central Kyoto, reachable from Hankyu Nagaoka-Tenjin or JR Nagaokakyo.
