Nihonbashi Bridge Centennial Festival Parade (Part 3)

[Yurikamome] Nov. 4, 2011 08:30

 The traditional dance of Tohoku continues in hope of recovery from the Great East Japan Earthquake.   This is "Urahama Nenbutsuken Dance".  Speaking of which, in July of the summer of Tsukudashima, Chuo-ku, a venerable "Nenbutsu Odori" is held.

I heard a familiar song. It's "Yamadacho Yagibushi". Jestue is dancing very hard.   It's so rhythmic that I just sang together. Everyone was really fine.

 The atmosphere suddenly changed. It is "Soma Nomaoi Equestrian Warrior". It is rarely seen that an equestrian warrior wearing armor helmets walks around Chuo-dori. The classic car parade was also cool, but this time slipped scene was a valuable photo. I pray for the recovery of the environment of your hometown.

 It's a local turn to move on to the "Part 3 Bridge 100th Anniversary Parade". First of all, it is a collection of traditional town "Highten lanterns". It is the pride of the town raised high on the tip of a long bamboo groove.   "Where is our house? Oh! Who has it? I wonder if I'll come here soon."

The bill that says the best in Japan for the golden portable shrine Teppen!"  "Nihonbashi 1-chome" "Don't live in your favorite place!"

Next is "Kyobashi Ichinobe".  portable shrine has a solid yet stylish design. Everyone's happi coat color is also stylish green. A beautiful and beautiful sister is also carrying together. And they all had a great deal of strength. It was a shy group.

And you must have seen the banner of the Nihonbashi Centennial Festival, which was put on the guard of the Metropolitan Expressway on top of it.  Let's take care of everyone for the next hundred years "Nihonbashi"! !
