Why You Should Visit
A community festival at Kaya Sohō Park, 500 metres up the slopes of Mt. Oe, the mountain of the famous demon-slaying legend. Run by local volunteers under the motto "children's memories build the region's future", it offers bingo with prizes, a treasure hunt for the demon's hidden gold, old-fashioned games like ring toss and top spinning, and workshops, with food and drink from shops in Yosano and Fukuchiyama.
