Matsuri Tsukuba 2007

August 31, 2007

nebuta

The first time I heard of the word “nebuta,” it was while watching a TV program featuring the famous floats that the “Nebuta Festival” of Aomori is known for. Although I lived in the Tohoku region for more than three years, not once did I have the opportunity to visit Aomori (I got as far as Akita, though).

Fortunately, right here in Tsukuba we can still enjoy a smaller version of the “nebuta.”

What’s a matsuri?
