What Is Astra Lumina?

In simple terms, Astra Lumina is an immersive light show that visitors can enjoy by walking through it at night. The lights and sounds are seamlessly integrated in an artistic way that sparks imagination and emotion. The innovative transformation of the area establishes a "second identity" of the space. As you walk, you'll feel as if the stars are decending from the night sky.
