The Japan`s Three Great Festival "Gion Matsuri"

Hi, Welcome Back to Risshisha!
The hot and humid weather in Japan continues every dayangry
Hope you are doing well!
 
By the way, the most thing that comes to mind
when you think of summer in Kyoto is the "Gion Festival"
Due to the corona virus this event has been postponed. crying

But, this year, only the "Dashi-zukuri"*) will be held for the first time in two years.wink
It seems that the Yamahoko cruise will be held on foot, just like last year.
In July, the practice of Gion Hayashi, which is called "Nikai Hayashi", began,
and the sounds of drums, flutes, and atarigane are ringing mainly in Shijo-dori street.
 
Since the Corona virus are spread,
this year is more lively year in summer in Kyoto!

Preparations for the Gion Festival are steadily progressing,
and we feel that the usual summer in Kyoto is returning. laugh
and the street on Shijo-dori is decorated with large lanterns,
making it the color of the Gion Festival.

you can fully enjoy the atmosphere of Gion Matsuri if you come to Kyoto at this summer,
So if you have a chance, please come to Kyoto to see the "Hoko" for the first time in two years.yes

Please stay tune for more latets info...
