About this spot

Remaining in the center of Furukawa, Osaki City, this shopping street retains an old-fashioned, retro atmosphere and represents Osaki City. Eateries, sweet shops, and general stores line the street, and its calm atmosphere lets you feel the town's history just by walking through. On the day of the fireworks festival, a summer-festival mood spreads across the whole town, gradually building excitement from midday onward. Fill up on a light snack here as you start your Osaki day heading toward the evening fireworks.

Tips

Within walking distance of JR Furukawa Station. The summer sun is strong, so take frequent breaks and stay hydrated. On the day of the fireworks festival it gets crowded from evening onward, so it's recommended to walk leisurely in the early afternoon.
