About the event
Chishakuin’s new night event combines maple foliage with bamboo lanterns and an artificial sea of mist. It is a grounds illumination, with a different focus from a daytime art visit. The treasure museum is normally unavailable at night, except November 21–28 when it opens separately until 21:00, with last entry at 20:30.
