Lantern Festival Japanese Floating

Lantern Festival Japanese Floating. Shinnyo‑en lantern floatings around the world. Purchase a floating lantern at the door, and launch it on our sparkling koi pond to participate in this ancient and symbolic japanese tradition without ever leaving.

Lanterns for the toro nagashi (lantern floating) ceremony go on sale at the start of lantern festival. People gather in hiroshima to pray for peace and float lanterns.
