Last year, Typhoon No. 19, "East Japan Typhoon" in Nagano City, was severely damaged, and "Zenkoji Illumination", which colors Zenko-ji with light and sound, began on the 22nd in hope of a typhoon recovery.
`` Zenkoji Illumination '' is an event to light up the main hall and the mountain gate, and the plan to perform it in December last year was temporarily canceled due to the influence of `` East Japan Typhoon '', but with the theme of `` light of reconstruction '' to restore the bustle in the city It will be held.
At the lighting ceremony held on the 22nd, silence was given to the victims of the typhoon, and Mayor Hisao Kato of Nagano City greeted him, "Please enjoy the production of light wishing for reconstruction."
At 5:00 pm, the illumination was turned on in response to the signal of the bronze medalist Tomomi Okazaki of the Nagano Olympics in Speed Skating.
This time, for the first time, the director of the main hall was also directed, and the fantastic space was expanded, with images depicting lotus flowers, butterflies, peacocks, and so on.
In addition, a piano submerged by a typhoon has been restored and placed near the mountain gate, so visitors can play freely.
On the other hand, a disinfectant solution was prepared at the venue to prevent transmission of the new coronavirus, and visitors were asked to wear masks.
A man in his 40s in Ueda, who visited with his family, said, "It was so colorful and beautiful. I hope the affected people can get back to life as soon as possible."
"Zenkoji Illumination" will be held until next month.
