2026 Tawaramoto Town Event Plaza Fountain Full-Day Course

This course centers on the Tawaramoto Town Event Plaza Fountain in Tawaramoto Town, Shiki District (磯城郡田原本町), and fills a whole day of play close to home. According to the official information from Tawaramoto Town, the fountain is scheduled to operate from Saturday, June 13, 2026 (Reiwa 8) through Wednesday, September 30, from 9:00 in the morning to 5:00 in the afternoon. Use of the fountain and the plaza is free, and because it sits in the center of town, it is easy to plan around shopping and meals. The Event Plaza is a residents exchange facility with the themes of connecting, conversing, and relaxing, and an adjoining community hall with an outdoor stage and Japanese-style rooms. No fountain opening event will be held at the Event Plaza this fiscal year, but the fountain itself operates through the summer and fills with the voices of children. In the morning, visit Kagamitsukurinimasu Amaterumitama Shrine (鏡作坐天照御魂神社), dedicated to the deity of mirror making, then touch on Yayoi-period excavated artifacts at the Karako-Kagi Archaeological Museum and trace this town's long history together as a family. Have lunch at the Michi-no-Eki Resty Karako-Kagi roadside station, where you can encounter local ingredients, and then send the spray flying at the fountain in the afternoon. All the travel is completed within the town, so the plan is unlikely to fall apart even with small children.
