Nagatoro Iwadatami-dori Shopping Street (長瀞町岩畳通り商店街)

Flow of the course

About this spot

At Iwadatami-dori Shopping Street, lined with shops along the road from Nagatoro Station to the Iwadatami rocks, you can enjoy local food while getting ready for the festival. It's a chance for the family to have an early dinner while feeling the cool riverside air. As the festival start time approaches, the area gradually fills with more people, so it's reassuring to finish eating and use the restroom during this time. As dusk falls over the street, there's a growing sense of anticipation for the lantern-floating about to begin.

Crowds are expected on the day of the festival, so an early visit is recommended. Plan ahead with the distance to the festival venue in mind.

Best time to visit

About 45 minutes. The 4 p.m. hour tends to be a relatively calm time to eat.
