What to expect
The night sky over Lake Kasumigaura is transformed into a canvas of vibrant colors and intricate patterns, with the explosions reflecting off the water's surface. The orchestral soundtrack adds a dramatic auditory layer to the visual spectacle.
Best viewing tips
For the best view, head to the Sakura Riverbank area early to secure a spot. Bring a blanket or a portable chair for comfort, and consider ear protection for children due to the loud bursts.
