OSAKA--A large-scale projection mapping themed on natural phenomena, including falling snow, aurora and diamond dust, is being shown at the observation deck of the Abeno Harukas skyscraper.
Visitors can also enjoy the night view of Osaka from the venue 300 meters above the ground.
For the sixth installment of the annual projection mapping event, fantastic imagery is projected onto the windows and floor of the Harukas 300.
A waterfall flowing over 15-meter-long pillars is featured in the Sky Garden, an open space with a high ceiling on the 58th floor. A lake is projected onto the floor, with ripples spreading across the surface as children run around the place.
The event is offered from sunset to 9:40 p.m. It runs until March 31.
Admission to the observation deck is 1,500 yen ($13.70) for adults, 1,200 yen for junior and senior high school students, 700 yen for elementary school students, 500 yen for preschoolers and free for children aged 3 or younger.
