In 1615 through the efforts of Yasui Donton and Douto, Dontonbori was created. Now live entertainment thrives along the streets of Dotonbori.
Dotonbori represents the best of Japan’s entertainment. For this reason we want to tell the world about summertime in Japan. This year we will attempt a Guinness World Record by holding the worlds largest Bon Dance Festival.
Through this effort the Dotonbori will be known throughout the world!
