Jidai Matsuri (Festival of Ages)

Sunday saw the rescheduled parade showing different traditional Japanese costumes from different historical periods. Interesting enough, to get an idea about old Japan.



Awesome hat




Throwing of mop-like thing and catching...




The parade must have gone on for a good few hours. I stayed for about an hour, which was enough to get a flavour. Then long cycle home via 100 yen shop... this one had an excellent array of Japanese snack foods. Yum.
