7 Million Solar Powered LEDs Illuminates the arena in Japan's amazing Nabana no Sato winter light show

Millions of solar-powered light bulbs make this small botanical garden
the hottest spot this winter .

Dubbed the best annual light show in Japan, the Nabana no Sato botanical
garden has sprouted 7 million LED lights this winter.


The theme of this year's display is nature. The tunnels of millions of LED
lights encased in flower-shaped bulbs create amazing natural scenes, such as

Mount Fuji at dawn and a rainbow across the sky. A large area of the park
 is powered by solar panels.

Apart from the botanical garden, Nabana no Sato, on the southern island
of Nagashima, is known for onsens and flower blossoms throughout the year. It's a part of the Nagashima Onsen resort area.

The show runs from mid-November to March 31.

Nabana no Sato, 270 Komae, Nagashima-cho, Kuwana-shi, Mie-ken, 511-1144; open Monday to Friday, 9 a.m.- 9 p.m., weekends and holidays from 9 a.m.- 10 p.m.; JPY 2,000 (US$24), free for children under 12
