Today I visited the East Park in Sannomiya for Kobe Luminarie.
This gorgeous electric display event was started as a memorial for the victims of the 1995 Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake and as a charity for reconstruction efforts. For those who experienced the winter blackouts caused by the disaster, the rich and brilliant "light" meant the symbol of hope for recovery and reconstruction.
As decades pass, restoration is almost...now almost completed the circumstances and context are changing, so Luminarie evolved from the symbol of hope for recovery to a symbol of self-affirmation for the local citizens who have recovered, and is now becoming a tourist event.
However, memorial music is still played in the central square and donations are collected.
