The annual Christmas Market is held at Hakata Station. The market is held at Hakata station, with a glittering blue and white illuminated square and warmly lit huts.
We didn't go last year because of the outbreak of the new coronavirus, but this year we went because the number of patients is very low.
毎年恒例のクリスマスマーケットが博多駅で開催されています. 青や白を基調としたきらびやかなイルミネーションが輝く広場に、あたたかな光がともるヒュッテ（小屋）が並びます.
去年は新型コロナウイルスの流行のため、行きませんでしたが、今年は患者数が非常に減っているので行ってみました.
The illumination looks even more beautiful at sunset.
夕暮れ時はイルミネーションが一段と美しく見えます.
The square in front of the station has become much more crowded and lively. Everyone wears a mask. We warmed up with a glass of their famous hot wine.
随分人も増えてきて、とても賑わっています. みんなマスクをつけています. 名物のホットワインを飲んで温まりました.
There was also a shop selling fresh dressing made in Itoshima, where we live.
私たちの住む糸島で作られた生ドレッシングを売る店もありました.

ReplyDeleteThat looks lovely with all the lights and tempting things to buy. It is good that people are still wearing masks.

Yes, I enjoyed it for the first time in a long time. The number of new corona cases in Japan has been very low. However, everyone continues to wear a mask as a precaution.
