Leisurely Stroll Through Folklore Legend Country—Enjoy the Greenery and Cool Breeze of the Abukuma River

About this spot

A park and tourist facility spread along the Abukuma River in Nihonmatsu City, where the old Northeast folklore legend of "the Demon Hag of Adachigahara" (安達ヶ原の鬼婆) survives. Spacious green grounds and well-maintained walking paths make it ideal for leisurely family strolls. The summer riverside is blessed with refreshing winds, and the charm lies in walking through the shade. You can experience the atmosphere of the Abukuma River—where tonight's fireworks festival will be held—during daytime, while touching regional traditional culture. A representative spot of the Motomiya and Nihonmatsu area, where you can casually enjoy both history and nature.

Fireworks details

Name: もとみや みずいろ花火

Date & time: 8/2 (Sun) Time TBA

Venue: 本宮市・阿武隈川河川敷

Shells: approx. 5,500

2026年8月2日(日)開催の「もとみや みずいろ花火」は、阿武隈川の広い河川敷から打ち上げられる約5,500発の大会です。「みずいろ」の名にふさわしく、川面に映る花火の光が水の青さと溶け合う景色は、この会場ならではの美しさ。四方を山に囲まれた盆地状の地形に音が響き渡り、体に伝わる迫力は格別です。河川敷という開けた空間で花火との距離が近く、家族みんなで大輪を見上げる迫力ある体験ができます。山あいの夏の夜風とともに、本宮の夏の夜を締めくくる忘れられない時間です。

Tips

開催時間は事前に本宮市または大会公式情報を必ず確認してください(時間未定)。荒天時の開催可否も公式発表に従ってください。終了後は会場周辺の道路と駐車場が大変混雑します。花火後は河川敷でしばらく余韻を楽しんでから、時間差で帰宅するのがおすすめです。足元が暗くなるため、小さなライトを用意しておきましょう。
