Japanese Summer Travel(1) 🌟

✨ Kawagoe Hikawa Shrine Wind Bell Festival Over 2000 handmade glass wind bells form a "wind bell tunnel," with colors cascading like a rainbow. 🌿🌟At night, lanterns are lit, making it seem like the Milky Way has descended to earth. It's recommended to enter after 19:00 to avoid the crowds and enjoy the cool of summer. 🌿🌟Every Tanabata (July 7th), there is a special night-time visit. At the end of the festival (August 31st), there is a "Farewell to Summer" wind bell concert with a witch dance performance. Location: Hikawa Shrine, Kawagoe City, Saitama Prefecture 🍃 Duration: July 1 - September 3 ✨ Nyorai-ji Temple The wind bells here are all modeled after frogs. The temple also has over 5000 frog sculptures. You can "listen to a chorus of frogs" here. 🌿🌟 Location: 1729 Yokogama, Koga City, Fukuoka Prefecture 🍃 Duration: June 15 - September 3 ✨ Kyoto Shōjū-in This is a very popular wind bell festival location, famous for its 2000+ flower wind bells inscribed with wishes and heart-shaped windows. 🌿🌟 Sunlight filters through the wind bells, casting heart-shaped light spots. A 200m bamboo corridor is hung with Edo glass wind bells. 🌿🌟When the evening breeze blows through the corridor, it feels like stars are falling. Location: Shōjū-in, Tsukiyoshi District, Kyoto Prefecture 🍃 Duration: June 1 - September 18 #Japan #Travel 🌿🌟
