🌺 The 10th Nobeoka Flower Story 🌺
[Period] Saturday, February 1, 2025 – Sunday, April 6, 2025

The annual spring event “Nobeoka Flower Story” runs from Saturday, February 1 to Sunday, April 6, 2025!
This event succeeds the former Tenkaichi Himuka Cherry and Rapeseed Blossom Festival. It was renamed “Nobeoka Flower Story” in 2014 and, though some years were canceled due to the coronavirus, we are grateful to celebrate its 10th anniversary this year.

Local residents who wanted to beautify the Gokase River embankment, the event site, began planting Kawazu cherry trees and rapeseed flowers. Their efforts have created a spectacular display of blooms for everyone to enjoy.
After a gourmet TV show featured the Kawazu cherry trees at the venue last year, we received many inquiries asking where that magical spot in Nobeoka City is located.

[Main Events]
🌿 Hontoji Ei Nichiume (Eini-ume)
The weeping plum known as “Eini-ume,” with a trunk older than 240 years, blooms splendidly each year. Fifty white plum trees and five red plum trees color the temple grounds this season.🌺
As of February 20, 2025, they are in full bloom and at their best!

🌸 Konohana Walk
📅 Saturday, February 22 and Sunday, February 23
Three hundred Tenkaichi Himuka cherry trees along the Gokase River embankment and one million rapeseed flowers will spread a carpet of spring color.✨
A special stage will showcase local performing arts and song acts, and the riverbed will host the Nobeoka Delicious Food Market.🌿 Local seafood and mountain produce from Nobeoka City will be on offer, and proud specialty vendors from Kumamoto and Oita prefectures will also attend.
The popular annual Mini Sasuke Course Challenge will feature Sasuke Legend led by Makoto Nagano, a native of Nobeoka City.
We will give a case of flowers used for the “flower lettering” to the first 200 visitors as a gift.🎁
There will also be seed-dumpling giveaways that kids and adults can enjoy!

💡 WaiWai Flower Story 2025
📅 Thursday, March 20 (national holiday) – Sunday, April 6
At Nobeoka Castle Hill and Shiroyama Park, enjoy Somei Yoshino cherry blossoms and one of Japan’s three great wild camellia groves. Highlights include the WaiWai Gourmet Expo on Saturday, March 22, and the enchanting WaiWai Hanayoi Story, which features beautiful illuminated cherry blossoms—this series of events brings the Nobeoka Flower Story to a close.
Enjoy the magical atmosphere created by the night-lit cherry blossoms and the stone walls of Nobeoka Castle.✨

📍 For bloom updates and event details, please see the “Nobeoka Flower Story 2025 Official Website.”
Images are from last year.

Nobeoka City Event Information

＼The season of Nobeoka’s suigo ayu-yana has arrived again this year!／

What is ayu-yana…
Ayu-yana is a traditional fishing method that dams the river and creates an outlet in part of the flow, using the ayu’s instinct to swim downstream to spawn to guide them into a catch trap called otesu.

While yana fishing is found across Japan, the Nobeoka Suigo Ayu-Yana stands out for its grand scale—constructed in spots where the river exceeds 100 meters in width—and for being set up close to the city center, a rarity elsewhere.
On the Ose River, dining huts associated with the ayu-yana open, so you can enjoy a full course of freshly caught ayu—salt-grilled, miso-grilled, and more—while taking in the otherworldly scenery right before you.
The sight of ayu being grilled on the riverbank has been selected by the Ministry of the Environment as one of the 100 Fragrant Landscapes, and it is the only site in Miyazaki Prefecture to receive this recognition.
Each year a pier is laid out so visitors can walk out toward the center of the river, offering a chance to see ayu fall into the otesu up close. 👀✨
Please come and visit us!

A year-round scenic paradise: “Coral Eden”!

The sea around Nobeoka City stays warm and clear thanks to the Kuroshio Current, making it easy to observe underwater life where about 100 species of coral thrive.
An underwater park featuring seabed caves, colorful soft corals, and one of Japan’s largest Pavona (Osuribachi) coral colonies is famous as a top-class diving spot.

With a drysuit, you can enjoy this marine paradise throughout autumn and winter.
Snorkeling, which is easier than diving, also lets you get up close to colorful fish.
The calm waters and shallow areas make coral and tropical fish feel within reach, so beginners and children can join with confidence 😊

The NPO Himuka Sensation Experience World, commonly known as Nobe☆Sta, brings together specialists who use Nobeoka City’s outstanding mountain, river, and sea potential—the best in Kyushu—to guide visitors through authentic, moving outdoor experiences across a range of fields.
