Celebrate Christmas in a Forest of Lights at Karuizawa Kogen Church

The Karuizawa Kogen Church is hosting its annual 'Starry Forest Christmas' event, themed 'Prism' this year. As light passes through a transparent prism, colorful lights in pink, orange, and light blue shimmer, showcasing the spectrum of colors within light. Just like a beam of light through a prism, this event offers a variety of experiences. - **Recommended Activities** - **Starry Forest**: Experience the twinkling stars and the glow of lanterns and candles throughout the church forest, as if stars have fallen to the ground.
