Sunflower Festival in Nogi-machi
Enjoy summer in this town of sunflowers!
The town of Nogi is a popular tourist spot thanks to its beautiful flowers and the Nogi-machi Brick Kiln. The town hosts a summer “Sunflower Festival” in late July. Visitors can enjoy walking through 4.3 hectares of fields where two hundred thousand sunflowers are in full bloom.
During the festival visitors can visit the popular maze of two-metre high sunflowers (admission: 200 yen for adults and children over 6 years old), enjoy a sightseeing helicopter flight or a special mini train ride. Round off the evening with a dazzling fireworks display over the sunflower fields!
