I will talk about content of Gion Festival. Gion Festival has continued more than 1,000 years and it is historical. About 400,000 people visit Yoiyama every year that is held on July 14 to 16 and feeling over the festival run high. People carry portable shrines and make the around the city. At this time, there are many street vendors with games and Japanese festival food. We can see the children who are selling ‘Chimaki’ which is to talisman. Also, many visitors wear yukata and geta, which are traditional Japanese outfits. On July 17, Yamahoko-junko is held. Yamahoko-junko is the parade of colorful floats through downtown Kyoto. It called ‘moving museum’. The floats are pulled through the streets by team of men dressed in traditional costumes. The Gion Festival typifies festival in Japan. I have never been to there and want to go someday.★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
