Budokan's Evening Illumination Has Resumed
The Nippon Budokan is considered to many as the temple of Japanese martial arts. It was built to host the judo competition at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. The top of the building is illuminated by golden LEDs. A spokesperson says the motif is meant to evoke Mount Fuji under the moonlight.
The illumination takes place every night until 10 p.m.
