Christmas to watch and enjoy
Yokohama Bay Quarter Hoshikuzu no Mori
The traditional Christmas tree at Yokohama Bay Quarter 3 has appeared again this year.
The theme of this year's 16th annual Christmas illumination event is "Stardust Forest."
The 8m tall real fir tree that towers over the square is decorated with champagne gold lights and countless star ornaments, and at its base is a "stardust forest" where animals live. A "stardust curtain" of over 30,000 lights hangs above the tree, creating an overwhelming world of light.
Crystal glass Christmas tree
In the garden of the Hakone Glass Forest Museum, two Christmas trees, one large and one small, have been decorated with a total of 150,000 crystal glass pieces. The two Christmas trees are said to represent couples, with the large tree named "Romeo" and the small tree named "Juliet." With the majestic nature of Hakone Owakudani as a backdrop, the total of 150,000 crystal glass pieces shine in seven vibrant colors in the sunlight and wind during the day, and in the evening they are lit up and sparkle fantastically. You can enjoy the glow of the one-of-a-kind Christmas tree, "La Coppia," which changes with the passage of time.
Make and Enjoy Christmas
Winter only: Enjoy handmade Christmas!
At Fujino Art Forest, where you can enjoy a workshop experience surrounded by rich nature, a menu perfect for Christmas has been introduced. Why not enjoy a handmade Christmas?
You will make a "House Clock" by combining acrylic panels with a wooden frame, and a "Exciting House Box", a miniature accessory box with a roof as a lid.
The new glass texture of the tree bottle makes it look like a small Christmas tree when you use LED wire lights. It comes with a cap so it can also be used as a drink bottle.
These small boxes are made by sandblasting the lid of a small glass box, placing various parts on it, and hardening it with UV resin, making them a great gift.
Cut acrylic sheets into your desired shapes and decorate them to make necklaces, key chains, and brooches.
A must-have for Christmas! You will create an original 20cm diameter wreath, a wall decoration (swag), and a candle wreath with LED candle lights.
Glass domeWe will create a glass dome tree that encases a beautiful white tree that looks like it is covered in snow.
There is also a winter version of the pottery experience, which takes two months to complete, so be sure to check it out.
*All menu items will end as soon as stock runs out.
