A summer festival held on August 15, 2026 (Saturday) throughout the Takamatsu-Zuka District of the National Asuka Historical Park, home to the Takamatsu-Zuka Kofun known for its wall paintings. Food stalls line the venue, and the ancient Asuka countryside, steeped in history, comes alive with lantern lights and festival music. A summer festival against the backdrop of surrounding farmland and starry skies offers a unique charm found only in rural Asuka Village, away from urban hustle and bustle.
