The venue as seen from Horohira Bridge.
Perhaps because of the heat, more people entered the river than last year.
Both adults and children looked happy. Water play is fun regardless of age.
Meat dishes and alcoholic beverages seemed especially popular at the food stalls.
People chatting on benches while watching the river. It was very hot.
The dining area beneath Horohira Bridge. The hands-free barbecue option is a nice touch. Eleven food trucks were on site, and the shaded areas offered a welcome break.
The venue at night. The illumination of Horohira Bridge is beautiful.
Even at night, many people gathered under the bridge, creating a lively atmosphere.
The blue lights reflected on the river surface created a magical scene.
