Furukawacho Shopping Arcade
Located near Heian Shrine and Okazaki Park, this small shopping arcade is charmingly retro yet modern, adorned with about 1,000 colorful pastel lanterns hanging from its arcade. The blend of nostalgia and novelty creates a unique atmosphere that attracts both locals and tourists looking for Instagram-worthy spots.
This is a great place for a stroll and some sightseeing, and you can really get a feel for the local Japanese atmosphere.

Inuyama Festival (Inuyama Matsuri)
Inuyama Festival has been handed down at Haritsuna Shrine since 1635. 13 floats equipped with trick dolls are carried through the town showing off their trick dolls. This Inuyama Festival’s float event is designated as a national important intangible folk cultural property.
Besides the floats and taiko drum performances, the Inuyama Festival also features traditional music, dance, and all kinds of street performances. The whole town is filled with a festive and joyful atmosphere.

HUIS TEN BOSCH
This is the largest theme park in Japan, with beautiful European-like cityscapes and a canal that leads to the sea. The park is decorated with seasonal flowers and illuminations and has a wide range of the latest attractions. The park is also filled with excitement and a moving experience through a variety of events.
There are not only flower-lined paths, but also nearby cafes and fun attractions for kids.
