Glowing Worlds
Yomiuriland Jewellumination
Yomiuriland turns into a “jewellery fantasy” bringing together light, color and “brilliant” music. If originality isn’t enough to get you through the ticket gate, then a sunset or after dark gondola ride from Keio Yomiuriland Station to the theme park’s entrance should be. This is a really beautiful way to view this particular illumination, without the crowds and in some relative peace and quiet, before you get in amongst it. And the view from above is just breathtaking, especially watching the rides in operation under the twinkling night sky.
Date: NOW THROUGH SUN, APR. 9, 2023

Location: YOMIYURILAND, 4015-1 YANOKUCHI, INAGI, TOKYO - Map
