Kobe Harborland. A small exhibit of some of the patterns on display at the Luminarie, allowing visitors to see the tiny bulbs up close. Special thanks again🙇‍♂️-https://kabegamiphoto.com/event/kobe/luminarie.html

Valerio Festi and Imaoka Hirokazu (今岡寛和) collaborated to produce the first winter spectacle, working with bulbs donated by the Italian government.

Each year over 200,000 tiny lights are reconfigured into new patterns and shapes.

The design of the Luminarie displays changes each year, and over time has grown ever bigger and more elaborate.

Thousands of painted bulbs are gathered into intricate designs, illuminating the Old Foreign Settlement (旧居留地 'Kyūkyoryūchi') and Higashi Yūenchi Park (東遊園地公園), home of the 'Great Hanshin Earthquake Memorial Flame' (1.17希望の灯り).

Usually a pre-Christmas event, for its 30th anniversary the Luminarie has been moved to January 24th. It will run for 10 days.
