Shobara Shopping Center Joyful Nagae (庄原ショッピングセンター ジョイフルながえ)

Flow of the course

About this spot

A shopping center in Nishihonmachi, Shobara City, gathering local shops. Centered around a supermarket, it's lined with fresh fish shops and souvenir stores, and also includes a long-established Japanese and Western confectionery shop that has run here for over 40 years, letting you take in a range of Shobara flavors in one place. It's not flashy, but its warm, community-rooted atmosphere is the appeal, making it a perfect place to spend a relaxed moment before the fireworks festival. It's recommended to keep things light here, saving room for the evening's food stalls.

About 10 minutes by car from Ueno Park. Business hours vary by shop, so it's reassuring to check in advance. Some streets have little shade in summer, so take breaks as you walk.

Best time to visit

About 1 hour 15 minutes. A visit during the afternoon snack time is recommended
