2022 SNOW LIGHT PATH
This year's Snow Light Path was different from previous yearsーinstead of having the usual 4-5 main festival sites, this year the community and businesses were asked to light candles outside their homes or businesses so the entire city would become the venue.
⛄⛄ Canal Plaza ⛄⛄
teardrop ice lanterns, wax bowls, ice plates with pressed flowers
our very own Mt. Akari (306 cm)
if you look closely at the picture below, you can see a
visitor climbing the mountain on the left side

and snowmen!
lots and lots of snowmen!
some wearing cute scarves and hats
and others holding hands!
we even had ducks!
and cute little birds!

This year's Snow Light Path was only 3 days and went by very quickly.
While it took on a different form than previous years, it was great
to see the whole community come together to keep the spirit alive.
We hope things get back to normal soon so we can welcome
visitors from all over the world to our famous winter festival.
We hope to see you next year!
