In Closing
They say autumn begins with a bread festival, and this year’s event is taking place in early autumn. Once again, a wide variety of breads will be gathered in one place—from recently opened bakeries in Ashiya, such as “Miruju” and “Pan no Odoriba,” to popular shops from across the Kansai region. Daimaru Ashiya has also just reopened following renovations, so this could be a great chance to check out its new stores while you’re there.
