Japan's Most Romantic Folk Dance Festival | Owara Kaze-no-bon | Late Summer Illusion | JAPAN VLOG

"The Owara Kaze-no-bon Festival in Toyama." A traditional event that has been handed down for over 300 years. Every year from September 1st to 3rd, the melancholic sounds of shamisen and kokyu reverberate throughout the small town on a hill, heralding the arrival of autumn. The melancholic tunes of the jikata performers' singing, music, shamisen, kokyu, and taiko drums, and the graceful dances of the dancers hiding their faces under straw hats, invite people into a fantastical world where they feel as if they are seeing a vision of the end of summer.
