Street illuminations are held once a year over a period of about a month in the city of Ōkan, known for its Akita inu. About 220,000 balls of LEDs will be attached to the parapet of the bridge over 83 crested trees and the Nagi River on a section of about 1km city road in the city of Ōkan, commonly referred to as the "22m road". There are few buildings that emit bright light along the road, and it is as beautiful as a tunnel of light. In particular, the collaboration with the falling snow is fantastic, and you can enjoy an exceptional view on the drive. The lighting time is from 16:30 to 1:00 the following day.
