Kokura castle is floating on water and looks dreamlike. The concept of the castle is “water mirror castle”. We considered revealing the castle’s diverse faces, so we decided to light up not only the castle, but surrounding features such as the ramparts. It is reflected by the moat beautifully, becoming an elegant symbol of Kokura. This heritage has full-scale renovation plans to celebrate for the sixty-year anniversary of its rebuilding in 2019. The range of illumination will be larger including gardens and the whole castle area.
