[Fukuoka Prefecture🇯🇵 Kokura Castle Bamboo Lantern Festival] Coming soon‼️ Be enveloped in 30,000 fantastical bamboo lanterns☺️

#TravelWithPochikatsu

The Kokura Castle Bamboo Lantern Festival has been held since 2019! 🎋

It is held in Kitakyushu City, which boasts one of the largest bamboo forest areas in Japan.

The locally grown "Ouma bamboo shoots" are famous.

However, the problems of abandoned bamboo forests and bamboo damage have become serious.

The Kokura Castle Bamboo Lantern Festival was started as a countermeasure! 🎋

The 30,000 fantastical bamboo lanterns are a spectacular sight. ☺️

The first day starts on October 24th! ️This event is for a limited time only.

Please come and see it for yourself!
