Bizan Park, spreading across the summit of Tokushima's symbol, Mt. Bizan, is a spectacular observatory park where you can enjoy 360-degree panoramic views. Accessible via a 6-minute ropeway ride or by driving, the summit overlooks Tokushima City, the Yoshino River, Onaruto Bridge, and as far as Awaji Island and Wakayama. The night view is particularly praised as "Shikoku's best," with city lights sparkling like jewels appearing very romantic. The park features fantastical spots decorated with LEDs and a kaleidoscope-themed monument, making it popular as a Lover's Sanctuary. With rich seasonal colors like cherry blossoms in spring and foliage in autumn, it's a high-altitude oasis everyone should visit to experience Tokushima's city most dynamically and easily.

Tokushima

Awa Odori Festival

The "Awa Odori," held every August mainly in Tokushima City, is one of Japan's largest Bon Odori festivals boasting over 400 years of history. As the famous phrase goes, "Dancing fools and watching fools; since both are fools, you might as well dance!", the entire city is enveloped in a two-beat "Yoshiko-no" rhythm and swept into a whirlwind of enthusiasm. The elegant "Onna Odori" (women's dance) of women wearing matching yukata and deep braided hats, combined with the powerful and humorous "Otoko Odori" (men's dance), is simply spectacular. A major highlight is that visitors can join the "Niwaka-ren" (impromptu groups)...
