Punti salienti
Su Sakoshi Funamatsuri Festival
- Historic Maritime Scenery: Watching traditional Japanese ships cross the sea is like stepping back in time. The sight of colorful banners fluttering in the wind is a perfect photo opportunity.
- Magical Nightscape: The sight of lanterns reflecting on the water after sunset offers a completely different, mystical atmosphere. We highly recommend staying through the evening.
- Experience Japan Heritage: Feel the passion of traditional Japanese rituals while exploring the history of the Kitamae-bune shipping routes.
