The cherry blossom god
The forest god
This year at Tsuyama Castle
Make a spell
Junior high school students and younger: Free
This year's theme is "Sakura x Forest"
The Tsuyamagi Castle Night Illumination, set at Tsuyama Castle, which is listed as one of the "100 Most Famous Castles in Japan," will be held again this year, following last year's event.
To coincide with the Forest Art Festival in Okayama, Tsuyama Castle will be beautifully illuminated with a fantastic light display.
The illuminations decorate the Bitchu Yagura Tower, which was restored as part of a project to commemorate the 400th anniversary of the castle's construction, as well as the stone walls that rise 45 meters above ground and the lush greenery.
The lighting, sound and projection mapping effects are sure to be spectacular! Be sure to bring your smartphone with you when you come to the event.

The masterminds behind this are the brother gods of cherry blossoms and forests. Let's hear their story.
After saying goodbye to the gods, the countless lights shining through the gaps in the stone walls will guide you into a magical time.
The large staircase at the Omotemuchimon ruins feels like you're in the middle of a forest. Experience the movement of nature. You might even meet some unexpected guests!
Please enjoy the spectacular large-scale projection that utilizes the Bitchu Turret and the approximately 180m-long stone wall that continues from directly below it.
