Onomichi Sumiyoshi Fireworks Festival Happening on July 27th!

The last Saturday of July this year might be the perfect day to visit Onomichi, as there will be an amazing fireworks spectacular held in Onomichi Harbor! Fireworks will be launched from boats floating between mainland Onomichi and Mukaishima, and prospective viewers have the option of seeing them up close at the waterfront or catching them from a vantage point afar, such as from Tenneiji just up the hill. In fact, the Sumiyoshi Fireworks Festival might be a picturesque way to wrap up a day trip spent wandering Onomichi’s Hondori and hopping from one temple to the next!
