Every year in July and August, the night sky from Kyushu to Hokkaido is filled with gorgeous fireworks. In just two months, more than 5,000 firework displays are held across Japan. In some special destinations, firework displays even start in April! Let’s take stock of Japan’s 3 most worthwhile fireworks festivals, and let’s watch the same Japanese comic “Fireworks on Fireworks” 🎆Atami Fireworks Festival ⭐The most popular romantic fireworks in China The Izu Peninsula has its own romantic attributes. The first shogun Minamoto Yoritomo and his wife Masako Hojo met at the Izuyama Shrine, and it has since become a holy place for couples to pray for eternal love. Kamakura, not far from Izu, is also the filming location of "Slam Dunk". Here, the atmosphere of youth, love and youth is intertwined. And the most romantic thing is to watch the bright sparks bloom in the sea of ​​​​Atami with your loved one! As the most popular firework festival in the country, during the Atami Fireworks Festival, 5,000 fireworks are released continuously for half an hour. If you wait until the end, you can even see the much-anticipated finale show - the "Niagara Fireworks in the Sky". Unlike traditional fireworks that soar into the sky, the "big fireworks" launch dense sparks into the sky and pour down like a waterfall. The night sky in Izu instantly lights up like daylight. ⏰Time: 7/26, 8/5, 8/8, 8/18, 8/23: 20:20～20:40 👉HH View Seat: VIP seats to watch the Atami Fireworks up close 🎆Suwa Lake Fireworks Festival ⭐The fireworks festival with the largest consumption of fireworks Because of "Your Name", Lake Suwa, the prototype of Lake Itomori, became famous overnight. Little-known is that Nagano Prefecture, where Lake Suwa is located, is also the largest fireworks producer in Japan. The Lake Suwa Fireworks Festival has naturally become the largest fireworks festival in Japan. Under the reverberation effect of the ring basin, the sound of fireworks echoes among the mountains, combined with the high-speed bursts of water stars, forming an audio-visual feast. Not only that, you can also see special "fireworks on the water". The huge fireworks and the reflection of the lake water form a complete spherical shape, which is very shocking. ⏰Time Summer Night Fireworks: 7/26-8/25 20:00~20:10 The 76th Lake Suwa Festival Fireworks Festival: 8/15 19:00~ 👉HH View Seat: Every year for the fireworks festival, Lake Suwa is overcrowded. We specially arrange a hotel where you can see Lake Suwa, so you can lie down and watch the fireworks feast. 🎆Lake Toya Fireworks Festival ⭐The longest firework festival held In Lake Toya, Hokkaido, there is a "marathon fireworks display" that lasts from the end of April to the end of October every year, with an average of 350 fireworks per night. You can enjoy the fireworks display half of the year, and it goes online on time every day, which can be described as conscientious. If you come to Japan and want to go to an "on-the-go" fireworks festival, then come to Lake Toya in Hokkaido! ⏰Time: 4/28-10/31: 20:45～21:05 👉HH view seat: During the day, the yacht cruises around Lake Toya, and at night, watch the fireworks display from the best view seat on the lakeside. If you want to go to the HH view seat, you are welcome to Didi

🟦 Hirizo Beach Hirizo Beach is located at the southernmost tip of the Izu Peninsula and is only open to the public from July to the end of September each year. It is accessible by a 5-minute boat ride. Due to its limited accessibility and seasonal opening, it remains relatively undiscovered, making it a true hidden gem. 🔹 Crystal Clear Waters Open only during the summer months, the beach experiences minimal human activity, preserving its pristine natural environment. The water boasts exceptional clarity, reaching depths of up to 7 meters. Swimming in such transparent waters offers a unique floating sensation. The calm and tranquil waves create a serene atmosphere, with the water shimmering under the sunlight. It's like swimming in a refreshing jelly sea! 🔹 Snorkeling Paradise The warm waters of the Kuroshio Current bring an abundance of colorful tropical fish, and precious red corals thrive here. It's an ideal spot for snorkeling. The best time to visit is in September when the water clarity reaches its peak, up to 18 meters. To protect the beach, it is meticulously cleaned daily, leaving almost no trace of litter. The official website humorously mentions that visitors are encouraged not to overly promote the beach, as they wish to keep it a hidden gem, but they will definitely return for a second or third visit. - - - - - - -✂ - - - - - - - - - - - - - Related Information: 📍: Nakagi, Minamiizu Town, Kamo District, Shizuoka Prefecture ☑️: First week of July to the end of September (dates may vary slightly each year) 🚃: Tokyo Station (Izu Kyuko Line) 🔜 Izukyu-Shimoda Station Izukyu-Shimoda Station (Bus) 🔜 Hirizo Beach
