Bon festival Dance
August 8th, 2005
We participated in a Bon festival dance yesterday.
In Japan, Bon festival dance is held everywhere in this time of year.
It is celebrated as a reminder of the gratefulness we should feel toward our ancestors.
Bon festival dance is called Bon Odori in Japanese.
You can have a look some pictures of it here.
My daughter went to the dance with her Yukata. Yukata is a type of Japanese clothing. We especially wear them at firework festivals and other summer festivals. It's similar to kimono. But kimono is a type of traditional Japanese clothing. Yukata is not. It's a type of casual clothing.
You can have a look some pictures of Yukata here.
