Special scenery at "Onshin River Utaakari," a wintertime tradition in Nagato Yumoto Onsen

　In winter, Nagato Yumoto Onsen holds the "Ondonogawa Utaakari" lighting event on the theme of a poem by Nagato City-born children's song poet "Misuzu Kaneko" along the Ondonogawa River that runs through the hot spring resort area. This year's event, titled "Utaakari Gento Rondo: Misuzu's Garden," will feature a fantastic light display accompanied by narration of the poem and music, as well as new motifs created by children and students in the city.
