Kawagoe Festival for the first time in three years There were more people than usual, and there were places where I couldn't move at all. It was the first time in a long time that such a big festival was held, and it was a festival that made me feel that my daily life had finally returned to normal.

It is the "Hojo Festival" in Yorii Town held on October 9 of this month. Divided into the Hojo clan and their enemy camps, they fought a battle at Tamayodo River. Cannons and fireworks were also launched, and we were able to see a powerful demonstration.

I was enjoying the traditional flock japanese festival in Toyama (near to Toyama station) on 24th September. It was a part of Toyama festival which was held from24th September to 25th September this year after three years. It was really very charming and enthusiastic.

The Kihoku Lantern Festival that I have always wanted to go to Corona was just calming down, so I took the plunge. It was a really great fireworks festival

Held at the end of summer Great lantern festival held at Mikawa Isshiki Suwa Shrine in Isshiki Town, Aichi Prefecture When the lights are on, the lanterns floating in the dark night are fantastic. Held for the first time in three years, you can feel the goodness of the Japanese festival along with the bustling hustle and bustle for the first time in a long time.

In 2020, it was a Japanese umbrella light-up event called "Summer Karasujo Togenkyo" held in the garden in front of Okayama Castle. The combination of the Japanese umbrella and the castle matched very well, and it was a fantastic and beautiful event.

It is a firework held at the Aboshi River Festival in Himeji City, Hyogo Prefecture. It is close to the Harima Rinkai Industrial Area, and I searched for a place the day before to see if I could take a picture with the night view of the factory. I couldn't predict until the launch site was met with this factory. We were barely able to shoot together.

This is Komyoji, known for the wind chime festival in Sayo Town, Hyogo Prefecture. There are 2,000 wind chimes hanging in the precincts. Many wishes such as warding off evil and ending plagues are dedicated in wind chimes. In summer, the sound of wind chimes swaying in the wind brings coolness.

<Yes, go ahead> The joy of the Gion Festival is not only to ward off evil. yamaboko collection of all 35 red seals is one of them. The gaze of the person who draws the red seal and the person who receives it was wonderful.

I'm < nervous~! > At the Gion Festival, the heaviest of the three mikoshi, the West Throne mikoshi, weighs 3.2 tons. This is the most tense scene in the festival.

<Gion Festival West Throne> It is a scene where the deity of Yasaka Shrine is transferred to three mikoshi and greets the main shrine. The shooting was sweaty.

<Fun Yoiyama> The evening of the Gion Festival for the first time in three years. If you think it's a goldfish scoop, "flower scoop". It was popular with women.

The summertime firework festival is very popular in Japan. And this time I was able to enjoy such kind of festival in Atami. It was too good and it was a 25 mint show. I didn't realize how fast time goes.

Held for the first time in three years, at the Madarao Jazz event in Iiyama City, Nagano Prefecture. With the best music and good wine and food I was able to enjoy the summer outdoors for the first time in a long time.

The annual festival of Tomioka Hachimangu is held around August 15th. Also commonly known as the "Fukagawa Hachiman Festival", it is counted as one of the "Three Great Festivals of Edo" along with the Sanno Festival of Hie Shrine in Akasaka and the Kanda Festival of Kanda Myojin. The year in which the Hachimangu shrine's shrine goes to shrine once every three years is called the main festival, and the sight of 53 town mikoshi coming together to make a joint crossing is unique to the Fukagawa Hachiman Festival. The festival in Fukagawa is characterized by the traditional shouting of "Washoi, Wasshiyoi" and the alias of the "Mizukake Festival", in which the bearers and spectators are showered with purifying water from the crowd along the road, and the bearers and spectators are excited as one, and it has been carefully passed down by many people as a festival that conveys the essence of Edo to the present.

Summer in Japan is hot. Humidity is also high. You will find it very difficult to spend. However, the difficulty of spending such a summer in Japan may create a new "cuteness". I will not only lament that it is hot, but I will also try to get through this summer with a positive mindset that I will find something because it is hot.

It is a local festival that heralds the arrival of summer. On this day, all the citizens stand at the front and look forward to the arrival of the mikoshi.
