Tokyo Trip｜Roppongi Christmas Illumination!

The Roppongi Christmas illumination in Tokyo started on November 7th. Luckily, we were able to see it during our trip to Tokyo. It's a bit of a walk from the subway station to Roppongi Hills, and along the way, you can already see Tokyo Tower. However, you can get a clearer view of Tokyo Tower from the Roppongi Hills observation deck. Following the crowd, we quickly saw the beautiful lights. The zelkova trees lining the street are adorned with LED lights. Although it's not Christmas yet, I can already feel the festive atmosphere. I believe it will be even more intense when Christmas actually arrives. The lights turn on every day at 5 PM and stay on until 11 PM. I arrived around 6 PM, and it was already very crowded. It was quite difficult to take a photo, and the funniest thing was that many people were walking back and forth on the crosswalk just to get a good shot! I think the trees are particularly lush this year, and many of the lights are obscured by the leaves. But it still looks really beautiful in person!
