Why You Should Visit
A hands-on summer festival where Taisho Ward's manufacturers and local high school students take over the ward office for a day. Craft booths line up — wind chimes, original stickers, decorated lanterns, a can-badge factory — and every activity is free. There are also contests for elementary schoolers: "Giko Giko Championship" for sawing skills and "Kamihiko KING" for paper-plane distance, plus an SDGs art session using scrap materials. The Taisho Food Marche adds shaved ice and hot dogs, making it an easy day out for families looking to spend a summer-holiday day making things.
