Aoba Symbol Road
Illumination
Highlights
As the largest winter lights event in the city in downtown Shizuoka, the entire park, which stretches about 500 meters from north to south, is decorated with a tree-lined path of lights and a variety of objects. This year's event, which will be held for the 32nd time in 2021, has been redesigned with "flower illuminations,” flower-shaped lights which are lovely to look at up close. The high-quality works, such as the archway with countless lights pouring down from overhead, have caused many to be fascinated. The drapery of the trees reminds one of the Champs-Élysées in Paris. In the center of the symbol road, there is a large symbolic monument based on the theme of the year. Taking a picture in front of the monument is highly recommended.
There will also be a "flower bear" made of flowers at Aoi Square.
