The first Lightfestivals were realized for the Wakayama
Marina City amusement park in Japan. They faithfully reproduce the ancient
tradition. Wooden supports hold up the colorful lights that have taken the
place of candles, adorning the island's canals with light sculptures and evocative
colored shapes.
On the evening of the inauguration, the numerous spectators were able to relive
the ancient European custom in a ceremony specially staged for this occasion.
