I went to the Takasaki Festival fireworks festival in Takasaki City, Gunma Prefecture for the first time. While being watched over by Takasaki White Robe Daikannon, which is a landmark of Takasaki City, the fireworks festival ended without rain. The next tournament was short, but the fireworks was great, with 15,000 shots in 45 minutes. Before the start, lightning was happening in various places and rain clouds were gathering, but only the area around my area near Takasaki White Robe Daikannon was covered with clouds and there was no cloud overhead. It started raining right after the end of the fireworks festival, so it was a valuable experience that I thought was saved from raining thanks to Kannon-sama.

Summer is all about fireworks I first saw it in Tatebayashi a few years ago hand-held fireworks I was captivated by this brave figure.

A strange festival held in the early morning of winter at Kawarayu Onsen in Naganohara Town, Gunma Prefecture "Yukake Festival" One day, about 400 years after Minamoto Yoritomo discovered the hot spring, the hot spring suddenly disappeared. The villagers were exhausted, but when one of them smelled the hot springs, he smelled boiled chicken eggs. So we sacrificed the chicken and prayed, and the hot water came out again, so we all decided to celebrate. At first, we were happy to say, "Hot water, hot water," but then we all started pouring hot water on each other by saying, "It's a celebration, it's a celebration." I'm pouring hot water on a red and white kusudama with live chickens!
