About this spot
A shopping street close to Ryotsu Port that has been cherished by locals. Restaurants and souvenir shops line the street where you can enjoy dishes using Sado's seafood and local sake. Since the area becomes even more crowded from evening onwards on the fireworks festival day, it's reassuring to finish your dinner and souvenir shopping during this time. Enjoy the lively port town atmosphere while spending time leisurely before the fireworks.
