Yonago Gaina Festival (米子がいな祭)
This massive event is a true sign of summer in Yonago City, Tottori Prefecture, and is a long-time favorite. The city is embraced by high spirits as a number of events take place, including the Gaina Manto, a massive parade of Buddhist lanterns inspired by Akita's Kanto festival, as well as outdoor Gaina taiko performances, dances, music and comedy. On the last day, there is a massive fireworks show at Yonago port and Minatoyama Park, with about 6,000 shots filling the night sky with glorious lights.

Tottori Areas
Tottori prefecture is Japanese seasonal diversity at its best: Huge sand dunes cover the north coast, making for the perfect summer beach trip complete with the unexpected addition of camels; November brings the delectable snow crab, while winter around Mount Daisen, the Chugoku region's highest mountain, promises snow sports and magical views.
