I think the climax of Gion Matsuri, a summer tradition in Kyoto, is the Yoiyama of the previous festival.
Yoiyama is an event that takes place the night before the Hokoyamajyungyo that take place during the day.
The day before the Hokoyamajyungyo is called Yoyoyama, the day before the day before is called Yoyoyama, and the day before 3 days is called Yoyoyama.
The sun shines on the Komagata lanterns, the stores are lined up, and festival music can be heard from all over the town of Kyoto.
At the old house, a folding screen festival is held to display the proud heirloom.
It can be said that it is a night when the atmosphere of a mysterious festival reaches its climax.
It's really fun to hang out with a beer in this. It feels like summer in Japan and summer in Kyoto.
Let's walk around now.
Around 6 pm. Shijo-dori, which becomes a pedestrian paradise, is already crowded. The sun is still high and the mysterious atmosphere is not yet there.
It's fun to put the whole city of Kyoto in festival mode.
Limited to Gion Matsuri, "Matsuri Yakushi BAR". A parking lot that is usually like a hall.
It's fun to see shops here and there only during the Gion Festival.
As the sun went down, the light of the lanterns became fantastic. Beer, gubitto.

At "Kikusui-ho", the famous confectionery "Tatari" is on sale. Originally it was a sweet to give to Kikusuiho.

Named after the fact that he kept his longevity by drinking chrysanthemum dew. Various things are involved.
The sweets look like this. Cool sweets like summer. The amber color is beautiful. You can buy it at the sweets shop "Kamehironaga" in Kyoto.
