Walking through brilliantly illuminated streets is one of the most magical ways to enjoy the Japanese holidays, especially because over the years, more and more cities throughout the country have been stepping their illumination game up with various themes and attractions to accompany their dazzling displays. Shibuya is no exception, and the famous city has taken its popular Yoyogi Park area and transformed it into an iridescent expanse of blue lights themed after Italy’s Blue Grotto.
