This spot is recommended for those who want to avoid the crowds and enjoy the fireworks at a leisurely pace. However, some areas have many trees, so it is a good idea to scout out a spot with a clear view in advance.
- Chiyogawa River Levee (upstream side): The Chiyogawa River levee a little upstream from the venue is a relatively uncrowded spot where you can watch the fireworks in a relaxed setting. It is somewhat far from the launch site, but there are few obstacles to block your view, allowing you to enjoy the contrast between the fireworks and the river’s surface.
- Around the Tottori City Kawahara Town General Branch Office: The area around the Tottori City Kawahara Town General Branch Office is within walking distance of the venue and relatively close to the launch site, making it one of the lesser-known spots for experiencing powerful fireworks. There are several parking lots nearby, but the area is expected to be crowded on the day, so arriving early is essential.
