This year’s Tanabata decorations are up again inside the East Building of “LaPorte,” the shopping mall directly connected to JR Ashiya Station.
↑Tanabata decorations in front of Yamada Denki on the 1st floor
↑They’ll be displayed until Tanabata day on Thursday, July 7. After the display period ends, the wish strips will apparently be dedicated at Ashiya Shrine〜
↑And this year, amazingly, there are pens available!!
Last year, there weren’t any pens out as a COVID-19 prevention measure↓
Be sure to read the request from Azuma-kun, the official character of LaPorte East Building, and sanitize your hands properly first, then write carefully with clean hands!!
↑This year, Tanabata decorations are also set up in front of the north-side entrance on the 2nd floor. It might be a good idea to write your wish at whichever spot is less crowded〜
Here’s the map for LaPorte East Building↓
The address is 9-1 Oharacho, Ashiya City, Hyogo Prefecture.
