Nigawa Seseragi Koryukan hosts Showa Era festival in Imabari

The Nigawa Seseragi Koryukan in Imabari, Ehime Prefecture, is hosting a ‘Showa Era Festival’ on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays throughout August. The event features various traditional carnival-style activities including medaka fish scooping, toy scooping, shooting games, and smart ball.

Visitors can also enjoy seasonal treats such as shaved ice (ice kulin), bottled ramune, and various regional sodas. The facility, located at the entrance to Nigawa Onsen, encourages visitors to enjoy the festival alongside river activities and hot spring bathing. Management has requested that visitors using the facility solely for river activities utilize the second or temporary parking lots to prioritize access for elderly bathing customers in the first parking area.
