“The Second Day at Sanja Matsuri in Asakusa” by Naomi Iseki

The Second Day at Sanja Matsuri

Each portable shrine (mikoshi) was purified at Asakusa Shrine and then carried out into the town of Asakusa.

The costume is different for each district, so the atmosphere is also different.

The local children were doing their best, too!

I came across the portable shrines wherever I went.

It was such an exciting day for the locals carrying the portable shrines, and for spectators like me, too!
