●What is Art Celebration in Nara?

A tri-national event, Culture City of East Asia is a project promoting cultural exchange between Japan, China and South Korea. Each nation selects one city that explains its cultural development through various programs while citizens of these three nations use these programs to encourage trilateral exchange.  This year, the designated cities for this event are Nara in Japan, Ningbo in China and Jeju-teukbyeoljachido in South Korea. 

During the core period of the "Culture City of East Asia 2016, Nara", ART CELEBRATION IN NARA – Beyond Time and Space will be held. This event will be comprised of various programs, particularly three key projects: “Performing Arts,” “Visual Arts” and “Food”. The settings will include the Heijo Palace Site, which used to be the center of the ancient capital, temples and shrines that resemble ancient Nara along with Naramachi, where the traditional Edo Period townscape has been preserved.


Nara's 1300 years of history and culture are still alive today. Through these events, light will again shine on the framework of the ancient capital, Nara.
