Winter Floral Magic: Illuminations at Shiki no Kaori Rose Garden in Nerima

From December 1st to 25th, the Shiki no Kaori Rose Garden, managed by Daiichi Engei Corporation and its partners, will host a beautiful garden illumination event. This winter spectacle bathes the rose garden in warm light, creating a magical atmosphere perfect for family and friends.

Event Highlights

The garden features charming motifs of animals and fairies that appeal to children, alongside festive photo spots adorned with Christmas decorations. The dazzling illuminations resemble a starlit sky, beautifully draping the pergola, enhancing the winter scenery with a touch of magic. As the daylight fades, guests can enjoy the moment where light dances among the flowers in a tranquil environment.

Visitors can come anytime during opening hours, which are typically 9 am to 5 pm. However, on weekends and from December 24th to 25th, the garden will remain open until 7 pm exclusively for the winter illuminations. Admission is free and the garden's proximity to the station makes it easily accessible, so everyone is encouraged to come and enjoy the festive atmosphere.
