"What is this?" I found while walking around Otaru

Four lights in the air...

I've loved the mysterious ever since I was a child, so I love these kinds of unusual phenomena. When I encountered it, my heart would pound! So I wanted the mysterious light to at least vibrate! I was hoping it would move a little. Unfortunately, it didn't move at all, remaining completely still.

I turned around and saw a light source. In that moment, the fleeting dream I had been pursuing since I was a child... my feelings... (for the hundredth time)... all vanished.

However, I think this light phenomenon is a unique one that can only be seen for a few minutes here on the North Canal on extremely hot days like this summer. It is extremely rare.

Nickname: Hikarugenji of the North Canal
