Toyohashi Fire Festival – Hand-held Fireworks – Hand-held fireworks have a history of over 450 years, originating at Yoshida Shrine in Toyohashi City, Aichi Prefecture, and spreading widely throughout the surrounding Higashi-Mikawa region. The prototype is the ancient smoke signal used to transmit messages. In the Higashi-Mikawa region, hand-held fireworks symbolize prayers for bountiful harvests, good health, and family prosperity, and are an essential performance in important local ceremonies.
The handheld fireworks are made from bamboo tubes about 10 centimeters in diameter and 70 centimeters long. Hemp rope is rolled around the outside of the tube, and gunpowder is filled inside. The finished product weighs approximately 1.8 to 3 kilograms. When used, the tube is lit by someone else, and the user assumes a deep squatting stance, gradually raising the tube upwards. At this moment, dazzling golden sparks can be seen shooting into the sky and then cascading down like a waterfall, bathing the user in this continuous golden rain. Just before the fireworks fade, the bottom of the bamboo tube explodes with a final burst of light, as if using all its strength, leaving the viewer in awe.
The highlight, "Dance of Flames," will feature over 20 hand-held fireworks bursting forth simultaneously, a spectacular and awe-inspiring performance unlike any other in Japan! Imagine being bathed in the falling flames as pillars of fire boldly erupt against the early autumn night sky, and be captivated by the magnificent spectacle before your eyes!
Toyokawa Inari Shrine - Toyokawa Inari is one of Japan's three major Inari shrines, renowned for its efficacy in praying for business prosperity. Its official name is "Myogen-ji Temple." Since its construction approximately 580 years ago during the Muromachi period (1441), it has been revered by local warlords such as Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and Tokugawa Ieyasu, and now attracts about five million worshippers annually. After visiting the main hall, you can visit the Reikozuka (Fox Spirit Mound), where fox statues are displayed. Originally a place for offering fox statues, it is now densely packed with over 1,000 fox statues of various sizes offered by devotees, creating a spectacular and unique sight.
In 2026, the 100th anniversary of the founding of the main hall, Toyokawa Inari will hold its first "Gokaicho" ceremony in 72 years. The "Gozen Ritsuzo" statue, a secret Buddhist statue not usually displayed, will be unveiled, making it an extremely rare opportunity.
Enjoy a king crab feast lunch set meal.
Enjoy all-you-can-eat fresh tangerines – Gamagori, located along the Mikawa Bay in Aichi Prefecture, benefits from a warm climate that nurtures the thin-skinned, juicy Satsuma mandarins. The plump, round fruits are incredibly sweet with a mellow tartness, and the melt-in-your-mouth texture is the most unforgettable charm of Gamagori mandarins. Pick ripe fruit right in the orchard and enjoy the burst of sweet and tart flavor in your mouth.
