Stroll along the dike for a cool evening, and have an early dinner before the fireworks

About this spot

The dike along the Kanbe River (神戸川) in the southern part of Izumo City is the venue for tonight's fireworks festival. As evening approaches, a pleasant river breeze blows, making it perfect for enjoying the evening cool. Spreading out takeout food while watching the sky's colors change as the sun sets is one of the unique pleasures of this area. As the sun sets, the dike fills with spectators, so securing a spot at this time ensures comfort for the evening.
