Feel the history The decorations around the yamaboko of the Kyoto Gion Festival are called "folding screens" and it is a splendid decoration that reflects the history of being a national treasure even if you look at any hoko ornament.

The Gion Festival after dark. I'm sure I'm not the only one who was relieved to see so many people gathering in one place and that the coronavirus has finally ended. It was one that was able to capture the original Japanese festival.

Gion Festival and people who flow like water. About 100,000 people visit from all over the country every year. I took a picture of such a large number of people flowing.

The moment when the Gion Festival is illuminated by the setting sun in the scorching heat. I learned a lot from my first Gion Festival. Next time, I would like to learn more about the historical background!

The city of Gion illuminated by the setting sun was beautiful. I went to the Gion Festival in Kyoto for the first time, but it was too interesting, so please go there!
