During the Christmas season, many people have already planned the most romantic itineraries to celebrate this wonderful winter event, with some choosing to visit Japan to admire illuminated spots brimming with festive cheer and enjoy a unique Christmas atmosphere. In Sendai, Japan’s largest city in the northeast, the annual Christmas light festival is no less spectacular — 600,000 LED lights illuminate 160 trees along Jozenji-dori Avenue, while renewable energy sources are used to support environmental sustainability.

Now in its 30th year, the SENDAI Light Festival has added a new double-decker bus tour this year, allowing visitors to avoid the crowds and cold weather while enjoying the beautiful Jozenji-dori Avenue from the comfort of a double-decker bus, immersing themselves in the most romantic golden and champagne hues that shine all around.
