At night, we went to Enoshima for the winter illumination.
Along the way there, we got a nice view of the sunset albeit slightly late.
As it was winter and the air was dry, we got a nice view of Mount Fuji in the background.
On that day, the moon was also super big. There were many people taking pictures of the moon too. We too tried to take pictures to show how big it was, but it was hard to capture such a view with our smart phones.
This illumination is called the Shonan no Hoseki illumination.
This is at the Samuel Cocking Garden in Enoshima and you do have to pay to enter.
The place is really nice. While there are many people there, you can take some nice pictures without anyone in the background because the area is big.
We had to queue for about an hour to get up this tower for a view of the garden from the top.
The view from above was nice but the queue itself was torturing as it was super cold due to the strong wind.
While you had to queue in line to get on an elevator to go up, you can opt to walk down using the stairs.
On the opposite side, we can see the bridge that we had crossed to get to the island.
You can see the sea from the top.
There was also an area with lots of tulips.
There is also an area which has Chinese influences.
As we were super hungry, we bought some fried chicken from the little stall there to ease our hunger.
I really like this area with this cute little lamps.
There were not as many people in this area and it looks enchanted. Reminds me of a Disney Princess Animation.
As it got nearer to the closing time, there were lesser people there.
It made it easier to snap pictures with a tripod as there aren't as many people passing by between you and the camera.
When I said tripod, I was actually using a small table tripod LOL
Lastly, our failed attempt at a selfie with the super moon, which looked super tiny in this picture.
