50th Kuraga Peach Festival

50th Kuraga Peach Festival

Event Overview

The Furukawa Momo Festival is derived from the fact that the Furukawa feudal lord, Toshikatsu Doi, planted peaches in his fiefdom during the Edo period. The appearance of six kinds of peach blossoms in bloom makes it seem like Taoyuan Township in Koga Park, the venue. There is a shuttle bus service (paid). * During the period (especially on Saturday and Sunday), the area around the venue is crowded, so it is recommended to walk from JR Furukawa Station or use the shuttle bus.
