Shinnyo Enn
1,000 lights of optimism
Project profile
Despite the weather conditions being unfavourable, around 3,000 people visited the Britzer Garden on June 13th, 2015 for the first major Shinnyo lantern ceremony in Europe in the presence of Her Holiness Shinso Ito.
Almost 1,500 lanterns are labelled and placed in the water in memory of deceased relatives and friends and harbouring wishes for the present and future. Enthusiastic performances by the Shinnyo Taiko drummers, Peter Schwalms’ band as well as musicians Naoko Kikuchi from Japan, Stella Chiweshe from Zimbabwe and Farhan Sabbagh from Syria were met with great applause.
