As I stepped into Kyoto Station, the dazzling light installations, sparkling like a sea of stars, immediately caught my eye. This modern station is not just a transportation hub but also a sanctuary of art. The lights intertwine in the air, reflecting off the surrounding glass walls to create a stunning interplay of light and shadow.

Visitors stroll through this ocean of lights, their laughter and exclamations of wonder filling the air. Standing on the observation deck, overlooking the entire station, the brilliance of the lights evokes a sense of the city's vibrancy and charm.
