At Kyoto University of the Arts in Kitashirakawa, Sakyo Ward, Kyoto City, a 36-meter-wide illumination display adorns the grand staircase along Shirakawa-dori Street, and is lit up every night. This traditional event is planned by students, and this year's design was circus-themed. 13,000 light bulbs create images of elephants performing ball-balancing feats.
