Nishiokoppe, Hokkaido
Aug. 28, 2024
Dance on the Night of Lanterns In Nishiokoppe Village every year, the Bon dance in the Kamiokoppe area takes place on the 14th and the Bon dance in the Nishiokoppe area takes place on the 15th. Some campers and riders come to Nishiokoppe just for these two nights! That makes us very happy. To the beat of the drums, we dance two songs: the children’s Bon dance and the Hokkai Bon Uta. If you dance both fully, it easily runs over an hour. Dancing for such a long time made me realize how much energy it really takes. And the best part of Bon dance is the costumes, right? Who will come in what costume is a mystery until the day itself. Seeing the adults go all out in costume and dance in a circle somehow lifts your spirits. A Bon dance festival for those who dance and those who don’t to enjoy. Thank you to everyone for your hard work! #Nishiokoppe Village #Kamiokoppe #Nishiokoppe #Costumes #Bon Dance Festival #Two Nights in a Row #Food Stalls #Chilly Bon nights #A sense that summer’s end is approaching
