 There will be booth to promote tourism Japan, especially focusing on attractive sites in the Setouchi area. It's good to know as I never been to Japan, so not sure of the attractions there. The major attractions in Setouchi, include large area of which is designated as a National park, the calm inland sea and the beautiful islands and famous sites such as the a-bomb dome in Hiroshima (World Heritage) and Okayama Korakuen garden. Setouchi is also well known for its historical buildings and as a central location of art.

For a minimum purchase of RM10, you will get a free chance to experience "Superball Sukui" a traditional game enjoyed by children during the festival. They will also introduce Okonomiyaki recipe for those health conscious that are allergic to flour. You can check out my facebook fan page for some photos I taken at the fair.
