About this spot

Sumiyoshi Shrine, venue for the Sumiyoshi Festival (Sumiyoshi-san), one of Hiroshima's three major festivals, sits along the Honkawa River. As evening approaches on festival day, the surrounding area gradually becomes busier, and people enjoying the evening breeze line the riverside. Spread out your prepared light meal or dinner from nearby shops and relax in the river breeze. Eating and securing your viewing spot near the fireworks launch site allows you to wait for the show's start conveniently from your location.
