Walking through Atami hot spring town - A town of steam and history

In the evening, the bus heads to Atami, the gateway to Izu. This hot spring resort has been known since ancient times as the "famous hot spring of the east," and Tokugawa Ieyasu is said to have loved its hot springs. The hot spring town has a long history, with records dating back to the Nara period, and it was popular with travelers and military commanders throughout the Heian and Edo periods.

Back in the Showa era, Atami was a popular honeymoon destination for young couples. Newlyweds would travel by train from metropolitan areas like Tokyo and Yokohama, stay at a seaside inn, relax in the hot springs, stroll along the coast, and enjoy fireworks and the night view at night - this romantic travel style was firmly established. The inns offered special plans, room decorations, and luxurious meals just for newlyweds, making it a dream destination for young people at the time.

As you walk through the hot spring town, you'll see steam rising from everywhere and signs for footbaths and public baths that use the hot springs. Even if you don't bathe, the steam and sulfurous scent rising from the entire town will naturally soothe your mind and body. The shopping district is lined with shops selling traditional hot spring buns, dried fish, and local specialties, so you can enjoy sampling them as you stroll.

Atami today is popular for its retro, nostalgic streets that retain the atmosphere of the Showa era. Many couples, families, and tourists from overseas visit in search of memories of their honeymoon trips back in time, and just walking through the town can make you feel as if you've traveled back in time. The cobblestone alleys, traditional wooden inns, and hot spring resorts with steam rising from the hot springs—all of these create a space of healing and nostalgia that will help you forget the hustle and bustle of modern times.

"Even if you don't soak in the hot springs, you can be soothed by the Showa-era atmosphere and the atmosphere of the hot spring town" - that's the unique way to enjoy Atami Onsen town. In between strolls, we also recommend savoring local sweets and specialties and reliving the romance felt by young people at the time.

The climax is the Atami Seaside Fireworks Festival

The best way to end the day is of course with the Atami Seaside Fireworks Festival. Atami Bay is shaped like a bowl, surrounded by mountains on three sides, and this natural reverberation effect causes the sound of the fireworks to reverberate throughout the bay. The roaring sound spreads throughout your body, giving you the feeling that you are watching from a huge theater where the sea and the night sky become one. The power and fantastical beauty that you can't experience at fireworks festivals in the city are the attractions that only Atami can offer.

The fireworks are reflected on the sea surface, creating a fantastical double sparkle of light. When you watch them while feeling the sea breeze, the vibrant colors of the night sky and the reflection of the sea blend together, leaving a deep impression on your heart. There are many different types of fireworks, including shakudama, star mines, Niagara, and other trick fireworks, which are launched in sequence, captivating the audience with their changing rhythms and sounds.

The famous "Niagara Falls in the Sky"

The climax of the event is Atami's unique "Aerial Niagara." The waterfall of light cascading across the night sky is a spectacular sight, with light pouring down over hundreds of meters in length, creating a breathtaking beauty. The audience cheers loudly, and from the excitement before the launch to the spectacular finale, it will turn your summer night into a wonderful memory.

The fireworks display usually takes place from 8:20 PM to 8:45 PM, lighting up the night sky with over 4,000 fireworks over the course of about 25 minutes. The fireworks can be viewed from the promenade along the bay, on the hills above the hot spring town, and even from accommodations, and one of the best parts of the Atami Fireworks Display is being able to enjoy different visual effects depending on your location.

Couples hold hands, and families and friends smile as they enjoy the sea breeze and the festival of light. Even if you're traveling alone, the contrast between the large fireworks in the night sky and the hot spring townscape shrouded in steam will leave a quiet impression on your heart.

The Atami Seaside Fireworks Festival is the highlight of this tour, offering an extraordinary experience, unforgettable summer memories, and the chance to enjoy the romance of the hot spring town and the sea all at once.
