Atsuko with information about interesting festival. It is the 風流街浪漫フェスタ Furumachi Romance Festival on Sunday, November 12 in the streets of Gofuku. This area was the castle town of Kumamoto Castle in the Edo period, and there are still many temples, shops, and traditional buildings. This festival aims to preserve and promote the goodness of the area. You will find unique shops, products and dances.

When I was writing this article, I wondered how best to convey the word 風流"furyu" in English. quaint? elegant? tasteful??? But I think the best way is to feel it for yourself.

I hope you will come and find the Japan of Edo, Meiji, Taisho, Showa, Heisei, and Reiwa, and feel the Japanese style of harmony.

If you find me in the area of Gofuku Elementary School, please feel free to talk to me.(๑˃ᴗ˂)و♡
