Traveler note
Walk an approximately 3 km route through the Sakaino district with a family word quiz. The updated tourism notice explicitly changes the event from 25 October to 1 November and reduces the family fee from ¥2,000 to ¥1,000. Its linked organiser application form confirms 1 November, 09:30-12:00, the same venue, a 28 October deadline and capacity of 15 groups. An older organiser text announcement, reviewed previously, carried the earlier date and price. That older site was unavailable in the previous review; use the current tourism notice and linked application form, and confirm acceptance before travelling. Remaining places are not verified. The application deadline has now passed. Do not assume that an accessible form means late applications or places are available; travel only with confirmed organiser acceptance.
