Watch 7,000 fireworks including \u201cStarmine\u201d and 250-meter wide \u201cNiagara Falls\u201d lit up from boats floating in the river. The sight of the colorful fireworks in the night sky reflecting on the waters and creating a fantastic image is definitely picture-worthy. To get to the venue by public transport, take the Kitakyushu City bus for Ashiya from JR Orio Sta., then take a 25-minute bus ride to Yamaga Yubinkyoku-mae bus stop (5-minute walk from there). If you\u2019re travelling by car, it is a 40-minute car ride along Prefectural Road no. 27 from Kurate IC (Kyushu Expressway). Shuttle bus is also available from the free parking lot (\u00a5100\/ride). <\/p>\n<p>Summer means fireworks in Fukuoka.
