Why You Should Visit

A marche held at Mukogawa Danchi in Nishinomiya, the housing estate where a retired Hanshin 'Akadosha' red-bodied train is preserved. Food trucks and local handmade makers gather on the lawn, alongside a petting zoo with miniature horses and sheep, a train-conductor experience, Mölkky and a community stage. This time there is a fitness stamp rally: clear five challenges and children receive original Hanshin Railway goods. Admission is free and it goes ahead rain or shine, with Mercado Mukogawa's Kids Festa and the Takasu flea market running the same day.
