Yanai Shirakabe Hanakouyu

This is a spring event for the enjoyment of flowers and scents, created by gathering ideas from a female perspective with the theme of “playing with flowers and scents”.
With the Shirakabe historic district as a venue, participants play a fan-tossing game, where folding fans are thrown at a target called a “butterfly”. People also gather to sing Matsushima Utako’s famous songs. Visitors who wear a kimono to the event can receive a special bonus gift.
