Why You Should Visit
The third edition of a neighbourhood market held a few times a year at Seiryo Kamikoshien, a nursing home in the Kamikoshien area of Nishinomiya. This one takes a summer-festival theme, adding traditional game stalls for children. Workshops line up — herbarium bottles, brush lettering, aroma bath bombs — alongside a care corner offering foot treatments, fortune-telling, food trucks and fresh vegetables. Admission is free and locals can simply drop in.
