Draw “HOT” in Ebina! A 4km GPS Art Stroll Through Japan’s Summer Heat✨
On August 5, 2025, Ebina City in Kanagawa Prefecture recorded its highest-ever temperature of 39.9°C, making it one of the hottest “heat spots” in the region. This 4km GPS art walking course lets you trace the word “HOT” right in the heart of this vibrant city — short enough for summer yet full of charm.
Starting from Ebina Station — a hub served by Odakyu, JR, and Sotetsu lines — the route takes you past bustling shopping malls, historic temples, and stretches of rural scenery. Ebina has long thrived as a vital crossroads, growing into a lively center of commerce and culture.
Along the way, you’ll encounter beloved local eateries, farmers’ markets selling fresh produce, and nostalgic, retro-style shopping streets. Each step offers a glimpse into the city’s unique warmth — in both temperature and spirit.
By boldly drawing “HOT” in the midst of summer, you’ll experience Ebina’s streets, history, and culture in a whole new way. This is your chance to leave a playful, heat-inspired footprint on the map through the art of walking!
