About the event
Ninnaji’s autumn night opening pairs the historic precinct with mist and a sound installation. The programme runs on selected evenings rather than every day, and ordinary daytime admission does not describe this session. The temple explicitly suspends the light-up on November 8 and 28, even though both fall on weekend dates.
