Shall we "Bon" dance?



Let's enjoy the summer evening with traditional Japanese dance with us.

We will have a special free tour to join the Bon-odori dance event in the evening of August 25th, Sunday

You might have heard amusing music and sound of drumming around parks or squares in the evening in this season. Yes, it is bon-odori.
Originally, the dance was meant to entertain our ancestors. In Buddhist belief, their spirits come home to their family during this period of time called obon.
Now, the Japanese people of all ages just enjoy bon-odori. Anybody can join freely, and the dancing movement is very sim
ple.
We will give you a quick lesson and let's go dancing! The tour is free of charge.
It's also fun to eat, drink and play games at various stalls.
