In the mood for some winter magic? Caretta Shiodome is always a good address for  Christmas illuminations. This year, I found it particularly beautiful. Welcome to a blue frozen landscape you can enjoy for free - just make sure to come during weekdays if you don't especially appreciate crowd movements, it can packed as morning subway during weekends. 

 Enchanting, isn't it?

Blue Cave in Nakameguro : the must-see illumination this winter.There are posters about it, everybody talks about it ; so I had to go and see by myself. Welcome to a place out of time.

When in Rome, do as the Romans do; when in Japan, go to Disneyland for Christmas. For some reason, Christmas in Japan has a romantic aura and for some other reason, Disneyland is THE romantic place to be for Christmas. Following this logic, Christmas is the perfect time to go to Disneyland Tokyo. And if you go by a rainy weekday after 6pm, it's even not crowdy. So let it snow !

There's no age limit for bedtime stories.

Can you imagine the milky way so close you could touch it ? This is the concept of this fascinating free exhibition set in Spiral Hall Aoyama and sponsored by a watch brand. Hundreds of golden coins glittering in the night. What could be better to start December ?
