The opening drone show, scheduled to begin at around 5:35 pm on Saturday, November 16th, will take advantage of Lake Yamanaka’s characteristic of appearing like a whale when viewed from above, drawing the silhouette of a gigantic whale measuring 70m in length and 165m in width in the night sky. In addition, there will be a performance depicting local legends and local gourmet food that uses Lake Yamanaka as a representation, spreading the charms unique to Yamanakako Village.
Meanwhile, the ending video recreates the natural beauty of Lake Yamanaka in all four seasons. A drone captures the ridge of Mt. Fuji as seen from the Yamanashi Prefecture side, and the brilliance of “Diamond Fuji,” when the sun overlaps the peak of Mt. Fuji, creating a fantastic night sky.
Red Cliff will continue to provide drone shows that make the most of the unique characteristics and charm of the region, and will focus on providing entertainment that delivers excitement and amazement.
