Why You Should Visit

A two-day marche at the Fujiwara Palace Ruins, part of the UNESCO World Heritage "Asuka-Fujiwara" sites, held around a field of blooming cosmos flowers. The venue, just south of the Daigokuden ruins, hosts 21 local vendors from Kashihara selling bread, kakinoha-zushi (persimmon-leaf sushi) and craft beer, among other specialties. Entry is free, and children up to elementary school age can get free cotton candy. Booths introducing the World Heritage site and a national tree-planting event round things out. Good for anyone who wants to stroll the autumn cosmos field and snack along the way.
