nebuta festival aomori japan_1

My husband and I went to Aomori on Saturday last week. This festival last for few days. This is good event for the local to be participated from the very young children to the senior members. Anyone can participated, one of my husband's co-worker suggested us to participated next year. what you're going to do at the festival is dancing with locals and enjoy in the crowd of marching people. 

Aomori is one and half hour away from Misawa AB. Be aware there will be so many people when you're out of the festival which makes hard for us to get out of Aomori. We took 30 minutes to move 4 km which is little over then 2 miles. For the people who live in base housing, curfew might be the thing that you consider to go to here. 

Festival was very fun and great opportunity to experience Culture of Japan.

Ninja shoes. Japanese lady kindly allowed me to take the picture of her shoes.


We got to Aomorori around 4pm and they were preparing for the event.


this is what we saw at the festival. This beautiful thing is glaring at night, and making the picture looks very cool. the local Japanese people pull this only with man power. pretty impressive.
