Overview

Countless multicolored lights twinkling in the darkness. This is the scenery of a huge tent village in the mountains of the Northern Alps in Nagano, Japan, which appears only during the season of autumn leaves. Some people do not aim for the summit, but simply admire the scenery. A man says, "It was my dream to stay in a tent with my young child. Each of the tents pitched on the rocky terrain at an altitude of 2,300 meters above sea level was filled with stories of its own.... Three days in the sky, immersed in a “different time”.
