The Experience

◆ Watch the “Kashiwazaki Matsuri Sea Grand Fireworks Festival” from Reserved Paid Seats ◆

The Kashiwazaki Fireworks Festival is counted among the “Three Great Fireworks Festivals of Echigo,” alongside Nagaoka (river) and Katakai (mountain). Each year, approximately 15,000 fireworks light up the night sky in a breathtaking display over the vast Sea of Japan.

The true charm of the Kashiwazaki Fireworks lies in its grand scale, set against the dramatic backdrop of the Sea of Japan. Don’t miss the spectacular “Underwater Star Mine,” where fireworks are launched from the sea and bloom above the water, and the awe-inspiring simultaneous launch of 100 giant shells. The sheer beauty and scale of the show are unforgettable—many visitors say, “Kashiwazaki is simply stunning!” See it for yourself!

◆Deep Experience: Togakushi Shrine Walk & Kiyotsu Gorge Tunnel◆ Discover the mystical energy and ancient cedar forests of Togakushi Shrine, a spiritual power spot in Nagano. Stroll along the sacred paths lined with centuries-old cedar trees and immerse yourself in the tranquil atmosphere of this historic shrine complex.

In addition, explore the breathtaking Kiyotsu Gorge Tunnel—one of Japan’s three great gorges. Walk through the impressive tunnel, featuring panoramic viewing points and unique art installations, and marvel at the dramatic natural beauty of the gorge’s towering cliffs and crystal-clear river. This combination of spiritual and natural wonders offers a truly unforgettable experience.

◆Authentic Japanese Onsen Hotel Stay◆ Unwind at “Jonnobi no Mura,” a traditional hot spring hotel, and experience true Japanese hospitality. The hotel’s signature natural hot spring is renowned for its excellent skin-beautifying properties—soaking in the onsen not only relieves fatigue but also leaves your skin feeling soft and smooth, making it especially popular among women.

For meals, the hotel takes pride in serving delicious cuisine made with locally sourced ingredients, including premium Niigata rice. Enjoy a memorable dining experience that highlights the flavors of the region.

◆Shinshu Peach Picking & Local Lunch◆
Pick fresh, juicy peaches and savor a countryside lunch at a local fruit farm.
