Kyoto's traditional festival held every July [Gion Matsuri].
The history and roots of the Yamaboko Junko procession at Yasaka Shrine!
The Gion Festival has continued for over 1,000 years.
It is said that the Gion Festival began as a prayer to ward off the plague.
The Yamaboko procession and the portable shrines are the highlights of the festival.
The Gion Festival is the history of Japan, but we will also look into the hidden roots of Japan behind the Gion Festival!
