Fukuoka's land gateway, JR Hakata Station is hosting the illumination event "Hikari no Machi HAKATA" again this year. Just go to JR Hakata Station Square and wonder about its transformation into a fantastic illuminated space filled with about 800,000 LED lights! As the largest train station in Kyushu, its scale is also the largest in Kyushu! The main attractions are the gorgeous symbolic christmas tree with a height of 14.9 meters closely followed by the large roof which shines like a starry sky and the flower tiara and wish flower made out of colorful light! One thing is certain: those fantastic photo opportunities will make you want to take more and more photos. Another highlight in this area is the Christmas market selling miscellaneous goods and gourmet delicacies until December 25th (Sun.). Simply enjoy this lively space full of magical Christmas atmosphere!
