Let's enjoy the festivals of Tsukishima and Tsukuda Island!

 Today, after work, cross Kachidokibashi and go to Tsukishima Nishi Nakadori-shotengai.

The night market, which began on July 12, is very exciting. (until July 14)

 Thank you to the lady who handed out the fan.

Next, cross the traffic light to Tsukuda 1-chome.  In turn, the strict Nenbutsu-style Bon Odori is exactly what the children learned.

I was dancing hard. (until July 15)

 Just a lot of photographers came out in front of the regulatory line to take pictures, and were warned.

It wasn't a sightseeing trip, so I felt that I shouldn't step into the tradition with my feet.

 More than 400 years have passed since Ieyasu Tokugawa entered Edo. In the meantime, there were a lot of natural wind damage and famine.

It's amazing! The following photo was taken. I learned that the people who settled in the Great Fire of the Meiryaku era (1657) were being "unrelated Buddha memorial service" constantly. For 350 years!

 After all, give the greatest respect to the people of Tsukuda Island!
