It looks like this↓
These are Expo fireworks seen from Naruohama～
This is what the launch from the venue looks like. But this photo was taken from Nishinomiya! It’s from Kuroki, who always takes amazing photos～

You can see them from Nishinomiya～
This is what it looks like around the sea fishing area at Naruohama Seaside Park.
Rakuichi Rakuza, the Closest Spot in Hyogo Prefecture, Is Also a Hidden Gem
From “Rakuichi Rakuza” on the pier in Amagasaki, you can see them even closer.

It’s really close, so the impact is incredible～. I was at the Expo the other day, and if you get ready in the right spot you can see them properly, though depending on buildings and such, they can actually be hard to see sometimes～.
At night, you can also enjoy food and drinks featuring Hyogo specialties like this.
Look, look～. There’s also a hands-on class where you can make and eat things like these apples and little frogs, for just 500 yen! Kashiwagi is running it～
Finally
Apparently fireworks were going up almost every day in August～. There will be four fireworks displays in September and four more in October. Since you can see them from Nishinomiya too, 2025 might become one of those years you look back on and think, “There were so many fireworks that year～.”
