What's this? Fukagawa Hachiman Festival photos by Philbert Ono. Held in mid-August in Koto Ward, Tokyo, this is the festival's full-scale version held once every three years (1996, 1999, 2002, etc.).
Joint Procession of Portable Shrines
Aug. 18, 1996
This is the fifth and last day of the festival, the climax with a grand parade of 54 portable shrines and other people.
This flag bearer led the parade. The flag is written with the name of the shrine, "Tomioka Hachimangu."
The shrine's head priest rides a white horse at the head of the parade.
