Christmas time is upon us! Coming from a place where "Holiday Season" is the PC term these days, it's funny to see the word "Christmas" plastered on every corner. Of course, Christmas in Japan is a little different than Christmas (sorry, the holiday season) in America. It's all Santa Claus, Christmas music and...most of all, Christmas Lights. I've never seen so many beautiful displays of Christmas lights (or 'illuminations' as they are called here). Here are a few of my favorites:
Shinjuku, Marui Building
Nagoya Station
Nagoya Station
Omote sando
Tokyo Station
Roppongi

You know those maps of the world at night where the amount of light in each country represents its power usage? Now we know why Japan is lit up like a prison break in those pictures.
Very pretty pictures!
I've been looking all over for this!
Thanks.
