Overlook the Townscape from Rare Castle Ruins Integrated with JR Station
About this spot
A historic site at the center of Mihara Castle built by the Sengoku warlord Koichi Kobayakawa. It is nationally rare for being integrated with the home platform of JR Mihara Station. From within the stone-walled Tenshu Platform ruins, you can survey Mihara's townscape and the Seto Inland Sea, and feel the remnants of the castle once called the "Floating Castle." While gazing toward the direction of tonight's fireworks over the port, enjoy a historical walk through Mihara.

Name: 三原やっさ祭り
Date & time: 8/9 (Sun) Time TBA
Venue: 三原市円一町 (三原港周辺)
2026年8月9日(日)開催、三原やっさ祭りの締めくくりを飾る花火大会です。瀬戸内の穏やかな海の上空に次々と打ち上がる花火は、港町・三原の夏の風物詩として長く親しまれてきました。やっさ踊りの熱気が冷めやらぬ中で見上げる花火は、祭りのフィナーレにふさわしい迫力があります。家族で三原の夏の思い出を作る、特別なひとときになるはずです。
Tips
荒天時の開催可否は三原市や主催者の公式発表で確認を。終了直後は駅周辺が大変混雑するため、フィナーレ後は少し余韻を楽しんでから移動するのがおすすめです。足元が暗いのでスマホのライトなどを準備しておくと安心です。
Tips
Just a short walk from JR Mihara Station, accessible even from within the station building. As there is little shade atop the stone walls, an umbrella or hat is recommended during summer. Ukishiro Road is just a short walk away.
Best time to visit
Approximately 45 minutes required. Early afternoon hours attract fewer tourists, allowing for leisurely sightseeing.
