The Kamakura Snow House Festival is normally held in late January every year. It was cancelled in 2022, but will resume in 2023, running from January 27th until February 26th!
A “kamakura” is a dome made with snow - similar to a Canadian quinzhee. Numerous candles are lit up at this event, where you can enjoy a magical atmosphere with many rows of illuminated miniature kamakura houses.
