炎炎夏日快將來臨!日本除了清貨大減價之外,當然還有花火大會!
During the summer in Japan, you can enjoy clearance sale as well as hanabi festivals as it is the season of fireworks!

自問對煙花沒有太大興趣,也不太喜歡人多擠迫的地方,但如果時間配合的話,真的要親身體驗一下日本的花火大會!
Frankly, I am not very interested in watching fireworks plus I don’t like crowded places, but it’s a signature summer event to watch hanabi in Japan. Highly recommended!

三年前的夏天正住在東京,當然不會錯過東京三大花火大會-「隅田川花火大會」、「東京灣大華火祭」和「神宮外苑花火大會」。
As I stayed in Tokyo during the summer three years ago, I wouldn’t miss the three biggest fireworks shows in Tokyo for sure - Sumida River Fireworks Festival, Tokyo Bay Grand Fireworks & Jingugaien Fireworks Festival.

而我個人蠻喜歡「足立花火大會」。
Personally I enjoyed the Adachi Fireworks Festival the most.

「足立花火大會」位於東京足立區北千住附近的荒川,約有100年歷史,發放約1萬3500枚煙花。可乘搭山手線到日暮里,再轉乘JR常磐線即可到達北千住站。只要一出閘,便會看見指示牌,其實所有人都向著同一個方向走,而且絡繹不絕,只要跟住他們走便沒有錯~大概步行15分鐘吧!
The Adachi Fireworks Festival, held along the Arakawa River near the Kita-Senju area of Adachi Ward annually for almost 100 years. 13,500 fireworks will go off. You can reach the Kita-Senju Station by taking the JR Yamanote Line and changing trains at Nippori for the JR Tokiwa Line. Once you get out of the station, you can either follow the direction signs or the public to the venue as almost everyone there is going to watch the fireworks display. To reach the venue from the station, a 15-minute walk should do.

這裡雖然人多,但地方空曠,不算擠迫,還可近距離欣賞煙花,天氣好的話能看得頗清楚,非常震撼!
Popular fireworks shows always attract people, but you wouldn’t feel crowded here as the spot is quite spacious and you would be captivated by the stunning fireworks display at a close distance.

至於「隅田川花火大會」,每年7月最後一個星期六舉行,歷史悠久,還有晴空塔為背景!如果要輕鬆欣賞這個壯麗的場面,又不想太多人的話,可從南千住站步行15分鐘到隅田川旁的汐入公園。
The Sumida River Fireworks Festival, held on the last Saturday of July every year, has a long history and the fireworks are launched against the backdrop of Tokyo Skytree. If you want to avoid crowds and enjoy the fireworks display in a relaxing atmosphere, you can go to the Shioiri Park near the Sumida River, a 10-minute walk from Minami-Senju Station.

白天陽光普照,只可說句天有不測之風雲,因為當晚煙花開始了不久便下大雨,結果中止了… 也是難得的體驗吧,哈!
A storm may arise from a clear sky. That night it rained cats and dogs soon after the show began and the event was cancelled because of the rain, but it was still a unique experience : )

如果怕多人的話,可試試找找「穴場」,意指罕為人知的地方,不過在網上搜尋得到的穴場,其實已經不是穴場吧 ^^”「東京灣大華火祭」有多個地方都可欣賞得到,三大會場包括「晴海主會場」、「晴海第二會場」和「豐海運動公園」,你也可選擇乘郵輪欣賞美景。而我選擇到所謂穴場的「芝浦碼頭」觀看,不過這裡未必能拍攝得到有彩虹橋為背景的煙火匯演啊!由山手線田町站步行約25分鐘,前往的途中,完全不覺得是觀賞的地方,但一到了碼頭附近,便看見很多人已霸了位置,坐在馬路邊和橋底下等看煙花。可惜的是,今屆因興建奧運選手村而決定停辦了。
How to avoid crowds but still enjoy the fireworks festivals? You may try to look for “穴場” (means “lesser-known places or secret places), but so-called secret places that can be searched online are no longer secret places in fact. Anyway, for Tokyo Bay Grand Fireworks, there’re many viewing spots and the main venues are the Harumi Pier area and Toyomi Sports Park. Of course you can also enjoy the spectacular fireworks on cruise. I chose one of the so-called secret places - Shibaura-futo, a 25-min walk from the Tamachi Station on the JR Yamanote Line. I didn’t see any viewers along the way to the pier, but they were actually there sitting along the road and under the bridge waiting for the show already. Unfortunately, the festival this year is cancelled due to the construction works of the Olympic Village.

在貨櫃碼頭看煙花,也是第一次!這裡有平地擺放腳架,也沒有遮擋,不過真的有很多郵輪在海上來回。
It’s my first time to watch fireworks at a container terminal. Tripods can stand firmly on the ground here without any obstacles, but you will find many ships and boats at sea.

「神宮外苑花火大會」為日本災區打氣,除了大型煙火表演,還有許多著名歌手和樂飛演出,需買票入場,部分收益會作震災之用。場外也有小食攤位,而我在核心外圍觀看,於日本青年館外站著欣賞,湊湊熱鬧。
The Jingugaien Fireworks Festival incorporates an amazing fireworks show and performances by famous singers and bands, spreading light of hope to the victims of the recent earthquakes. While tickets could be bought to enjoy the show in the stadium and a part of the ticket sales would go to the donation for earthquake victims, I stayed at the outer core near the Nippon Seinenkan, a hotel and convention complex in Shinjuku to enjoy the fireworks and joined in the fun as there’re quite a lot of food stalls around.

2016年以上四場煙花匯演的概要如下:
Here’s a summary of the above four fireworks festivals in 2016:

為了節省交通費,當年只選擇了欣賞這四個最有規模、位於東京市中心的煙花匯演。下次有機會的話,希望可以參與比較小型的花火大會,應該會有另一番體驗!
I just joined the above four representative fireworks festivals in the city centre of Tokyo that year in order to save the public transport expenses, but it might be also a good choice to enjoy hanabi in smaller festivals.
