Jumping right back into things when I got back to Japan, I got word of the big festival hapening in Nagoya, and was off like a shot. There were plenty of traditional Japanese displays, including various battle re-enactments, which were amazing. But along with that came the western influence of the marching brass band, uni-cycles, batons, and more.
That evening also resulted in visiting another festival in the small town of Tomida, where the annual “Lion Dance” was underway, photos from that follow as well!
