SHIZUOKA CITY KANKO NAVI

Why not come see Akamizu Falls in a whole new light on an autumn night? The waterfall, surrounded by vibrant autumn foliage and illuminated by lights, floats mystically in the darkness—a sight so breathtaking it will take your breath away. A special nighttime view, quite different from the daytime, unfolds before your eyes. You can also enjoy food stalls offering local delicacies and specialty products.On Saturdays during the event, there will be hand-held fireworks displays and powerful Japanese taiko drum performances. We also recommend soaking in the healing waters of “Kogane no Yu,” which is open at night, as you savor the lingering atmosphere of the event. Fall foliage, lights, sounds, and hot springs—why not fully enjoy the unique charms of Umejima in the fall and spend a special, unforgettable moment?
