Starry Night in Nikko
星降る夜の日光
The event will be held during winter season to enjoy beautiful starry sky in Nikko, Okunikko and Ashio.
Are you aware that Nikko is a secret stargazing spot? Here is the place where you can see a beautiful night sky with lots of stars, because there are no lights from buildings around. Also the altitude is high, so you can get close to the sky better than any other places in Tokyo.
Therefore, we have prepared 5 types of "Star card" for those who come here to enjoy stargazing. You can go get "Star card" at 5 locations as listed below, scan the 2D code code on the back side of each "Star card", and you could listen to special story about each location and its stars.
Before collecting the cards, please watch following Introduction video.
