Yoshiwara Gion Festival

In Fuji City, Shizuoka Prefecture, the streets of Yoshiwara come alive with vibrant energy during the city's most exciting annual festival. With over 300 years of history, the Yoshiwara Gion Festival, often called "the greatest Gion Festival in the Tokai region," features gorgeously decorated floats (dashi) parading through the town, accompanied by lively festival music and powerful shouts that echo through the streets.

During the day, the powerful procession of floats unfolds against the stunning backdrop of Mt. Fuji. As night falls, the town transforms into a magical scene illuminated by glowing lanterns, drawing visitors into a world beyond the everyday.
