Kurama Fire Festival

Autumn harvest festival at Kitano Tenmangu where the mikoshi shrine is decorated entirely with seasonal vegetables including the namesake 'zuiki' (taro stems). A rare vegetable-themed festival with 1,000-year roots.

Kishiwada Danjiri Matsuri

September 14-15 (main), plus early October

Kishiwada, Osaka, Osaka

One of Japan's most dangerous festivals — 4-ton wooden 'danjiri' floats are pulled through Kishiwada streets at full speed while acrobats stand on top. Serious accidents happen most years. Utterly thrilling to watch.

Towada, Aomori

A volcanic caldera lake surrounded by forests that turn vivid red and orange. The reflected colors on the still water create mirror-like reflections.

Kuwana, Mie

Japan's most spectacular winter illumination. Millions of LED lights create dazzling tunnels and landscape scenes across this botanical garden. The 'tunnel of light' is unmissable.
