夜の皇居外苑(ライトアップ)

夜になると、皇居外苑の名所がライトアップされます。桜田門、馬に乗った名将の楠木正成像、和田倉橋、皇居の石垣がほのかに光を帯びます。これらの名所を照らすほんのりとした光は、明るく照らし出された東京駅周辺の高層ビルとは対照的です。


Kokyo Gaien Illumination


Key features of the outer gardens are illuminated at night. Sakuradamon Gate, the statue of samurai hero Kusunoki Masashige on horseback, Wadakurabashi Bridge, and the stone walls of the palace all take on a subtle glow. The low-key lighting on these features creates a restful contrast to the brightly lit skyscrapers near Tokyo Station.
