A peaceful rural summer festival with lanterns illuminating the schoolyard

About this spot

A handmade summer festival held primarily by residents in the Asakura district, located in the mountains on the outskirts of Imabari City. The venue at Asakura Junior High School 2nd Grounds is decorated with lanterns, where Bon Odori dancing, performances by local groups, and children's activities are held. Unlike large-scale urban festivals, it has a warm atmosphere where acquaintances gather, and visitors naturally blend into the circle. Enjoy a moment of summer festival celebration with the community as summer vacation draws to a close.
