Warehouse town streets along waterways remaining in a town that once flourished with Mogami River boat transportation
About this spot
In the Koide district at the center of Nagai, which once flourished as a hub for Mogami River boat transportation, old warehouses and merchant houses still remain along the waterway flowing through the town. Walking while listening to the sound of water in the waterway conveys the former prosperity of this town through boat transportation. Cherished as a landscape symbolizing "Nagai, the water town," this walking course allows you to feel the coolness of the waterside even in the summer sun.

Venue: 長井市
2026年8月8日、長井市で開催される「ながい水まつり くるんと」は、最上川と町なかの水路とともに歩んできたこの町ならではの夏まつりです。「水と緑と花のまち」を掲げる長井らしく、涼やかな水辺の雰囲気の中で家族連れが楽しめる催しが繰り広げられ、夕方から夜にかけてまち全体がにぎわいます。花笠まつりのような大規模な踊りのパレードとはまた違う、地域に根ざした親しみやすい雰囲気が魅力の夏の一夜です。
Tips
会場周辺は夕方以降混み合うことがあるため、公共交通機関の利用や早めの到着が安心です。夜は水辺で気温が下がりやすいので、薄手の羽織ものを用意しておきましょう。
Tips
It is only a few minutes by car from Nagai Ayame Park. The paths along the waterway can be narrow in places, so wear comfortable walking shoes.
Best time to visit
Takes about 40 minutes. The soft afternoon light beautifully illuminates the water's surface.
