About this spot

The Tone River bank in front of Omigawa Central Park, the main viewing venue for the Suigo Omigawa Fireworks Festival. The vast width of the Tone River and the verdant Suigo landscape spreading across the opposite bank create a uniquely atmospheric scene as slanting evening light touches them. During this time, spread out your dinner purchased from food stalls and enjoy your meal while slowly watching the sunset and experiencing the riverbank's ambiance before the opening. It's also important to locate restrooms and identify your return route while it's still light. Savor this pleasant moment of cool evening breeze before the fireworks begin.

Tips

On fireworks day, crowds increase from evening onward, and good viewing spots fill up quickly. It's best to secure your spot after 5 PM. Food stall items may sell out, so it's wise to bring drinks and light snacks in advance. Mosquitoes tend to emerge along the riverbank in the evening, so don't forget insect repellent spray.
