Relax by the riverbank feeling the river breeze

About this spot

The riverbank of the Oda River, tonight's fireworks venue, is a place of leisure for local people with spacious embankments and gentle flowing water. It's perfect for spending time before sunset, relaxed in the river breeze. This river flowing through the center of Yakage town has long supported the lives of the post town. Confirming the fireworks location while it's still bright makes selecting your evening viewing spot smoother.
