Iwamuro Onsen Hiyotsuma Fireflies Festival

Hello there! This time I took part in Iwamuro Onsen Hiyotsuma Fireflies Festival taking place in Niigata city and viewed fireflies! It was on June 22nd, 2024. The weather was sunny and a little hot even in a T-shirt. I got there past 7 p.m. because they say the fireflies are more active from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.! Hiyotsuma Fireflies Festival will be running from June 22nd to July 7, 2024! On arriving at a parking lot nearby, I walked for about 10 minutes to the place where we get to see the fireflies.

Shibata Iris Festival

This time I visited Ijimino Park located in Shibata city, Niigata prefecture. It was on June 15, 2024 and the weather was sunny. I knew it would be too hot in the daytime, I arrived there in the evening. I was really looking forward to coming here because this iris garden in the park is one of the Four Great Iris Gardens in Japan. Without further ado, I will start with "Masugata" that stands out in the park!
