Hanatoro?!! What is she talking about? Well, it’s not the title of Hayao Miyazaki’s new animated film but a famous light-up Festival in Arashiyama, near Kyoto (lit. it means “flower and light road”). If you visit Kyoto in the beginning of December, you can’t miss it. Don’t forget to take a stroll through the enchanted bamboo forest behind Tenryuji Temple. Magic…like a Miyazaki’s film.
