From late October until early December, one of the Tohoku region's most popular winter illumination events is set to take place. The Millennium Corridor exhibition brings colorful projection mapping displays to the hot springs town of Ginzan Onsen, combining the best of modern digital art set against a charming traditional townscape.
Due to the popularity of this event, admission is by reservation only. Details on how to secure tickets can be found on the official Millennium Corridor website (in Japanese). Guests who are already staying at Ginzan Onsen during the event period can participate for free.
Getting there
Ginzan Onsen can be accessed by bus from Oishida Station, served by the Yamagata Shinkansen and the Ōu Main Line. Take the Hanagasa Bus until you reach the Togei Center bus stop, and then check in at Taisho Romankan for the event.
Event attendees who opt to drive are advised to park at the Taisho Romankan parking lot.
