Since last year, we have launched the concept of "Fukuzumi Take-akari" using bamboo lanterns, combining the production of the local "night view" with the problem of abandoned bamboo groves.In this event, bamboo is cut from bamboo groves that have become difficult to manage due to depopulation, and bamboo lanterns are made to enjoy the "night view" of the historic townscape.

Like last year, it was delayed again this year due to the corona disaster, but it finally started in earnest in July!
We are planning to prepare for the realization around November in cooperation with the Town Development Council and local residents while fully considering the measures against the new coronavirus infectious disease.
looking forward to! !
