Honganji Temple's Obon Dance Festival (2)π
No matter if the clothes were suitable or the dance moves were graceful, every participant imagined themselves as the best dancer, completely immersed and content [spinning around]. πΏπ The joy, satisfaction, and fascination that radiated from everyone's face was an escape from the trivialities of life, a SPA for the tense nerves, and a class - equalizing experience as natural as breathing air... It was truly infectious [β€οΈ][β€οΈ][β€οΈ]. The part - time Latina girl advertising cold drinks to attract customers, the fish skewers sizzling by the stove, and the steaming beef offal soup... πΏπ These were the warm - hearted that surpassed the summer heat, together painting the 2025 version of the "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" scroll at Honganji Temple. #Tokyo π
