About this spot

Located along National Route 23 in the northern part of Tsu City, this roadside station offers a rich selection of agricultural products and processed foods from within Mie Prefecture. Alongside seasonal vegetables and fruits shipped by local farmers, it also has a good range of takeout food such as prepared dishes and bread made with Mie specialties, making it an ideal spot to stock up before the fireworks festival. With a large parking lot, it's easy to stop by along the way when traveling by car. On the day of the fireworks festival, the area around the venue starts getting crowded from the evening, so buying drinks and snacks together at this time makes it easier to enjoy watching the fireworks smoothly at night.

Tips

About a 15-minute drive from around Hisai Station; a local bus route is also available, but since services are infrequent, check the schedule in advance. Check the facility's official website for opening hours before you set out. Popular prepared dishes can sell out early on the day of the fireworks festival.
