Kyoto Star Festival



The Kyoto Star Festival has been held from 4th to 13th of August. During this period there are various programs at the temples and shrines in the city.

On the main location, at Horikawa Kaijo, the visitors can enjoy the exhibition of the art works made by bamboo with the illumination all around the site. Horikawa River is decorated by floating lanterns, and above the river thousands of lights make the Milky Way.
