Held every year for 3 days from 8/16~18 Nishimonai Bon Odori of the Ugo Town of Tohoku Akita One of Japan's Three Great Bon Odori Dances It's not that long, but there are bonfires on the road, and of course there are street lights. It's not that bright, so the atmosphere of dancing in it is great. The dancer dances bewitching and beautiful to the tips of the fingers And the local chick (with a little understory) songs and whispers that liven it up are also good, I hope you can convey the sense of realism in the photos.

Located in Ugo Town, Akita Prefecture, Nishi Baonnai Bon Odori is a summer festival with a history and tradition of more than 700 years, which is counted as one of the three major Bon Odori dances in Japan along with the Gujo Odori of Gifu Prefecture and the Awa Odori of Tokushima Prefecture. The venue is Nishimaonnai Honmachi Street, which is the central village of Ugo Town, and it is a bon event held for 3 days from August 16th ~ 18th every year. It was mysterious and gorgeous to see dancers dressed in distinctive torioi hats (knitted hats), colorful and beautifully stitched kimonos and yukatas, dancing gracefully to the beating of taiko drums and songs. Especially this year, as it was the first regular event in four years, people from outside the town were able to participate in the dance, and many people from inside and outside the prefecture came to see it. Photos of the festival will continue after this, but I hope you can see it.

Sapporo Summer Festival The "Sapporo Summer Festival" was held at Odori Park from the mountain day on August 11 to August 16. At the 2-chome venue, the Hokkai Bon Odori was held, and many people danced the Bon Odori in a circle. There were many people, regardless of age or gender, and foreigners who wore kimonos coolly, and I thought that it was a culture that Japan is proud of.

Awa Odori ✨ that I go to see every year I also like dynamic male dances, but brilliant female dances are a must-see ?
