The commonly called Festival of Fire is the climax of the annual grand festival。Carrying large torches of an old pine tree -100 kg weight and 4m length, go up the small mountain cleansing them with the falling sparks.
Also it says that summer is over. We thank for keeping us safe or good health. At the top of the mountain, it appered large [大] shaped japanese Kanji with fire torches which means big or laege . i looked up while a time.
Summer has gone.
This morning,looking up the sky...uum...

Hi Mami!

I would be very pleased if you would join in my little giveaway!
I love the fire symbol, thanks for sharing x
Those torches are huge. I wouldn't be able to carry one. Interesting ceremony.
Yes, Autumn is fast coming our way as well. Do you look forward to Autumn?
Thank you for sharing your local festivities with us. It's always refreshing to learn new things through blogs!
I can just imagine how spectacular this looks up close!
Thanks you for showing me happy birthday in Japanese! ;0)
How nostalgic to see the letter of "large" in a mountain. I've never heard of this festival but I often visited Kyoto so this photo
reminded a lot of my past memories. ^0^//
It is always a little sad when summer is over but then autumn is a beautiful time of year. It is good to celebrate the seasons. Thanks for showing us your festivities.
