Summer Evening Firefly Viewing
Admire the ephemeral glow of fireflies and recall the depiction of the Tale of Genji.
You will go to the waterside of the Oigawa River, which runs right in front of HOSHINOYA Kyoto, to view the fleeting glow of fireflies with specially made firefly basket lanterns and listen to a narration of "Fireflies" from the Tale of Genji. Why don't you enjoy the atmosphere of a summer evening as if you were an aristocrat of the Heian period by thinking about the description in the Tale of Genji?
