Scorching summer heat continues day after day.
The word “summer” reminds us of the sea and firework.
We would like to introduce summer events in Kyoto by the sea.
Miyazu-toro-nagashi-hanabi-taikai (Miyazu Fireworks)
For the first time in four years, the biggest summer event,”Floating Lantern and fireworks festival”, in Miyazu city will be held on August 16th.
There are tow boats called shorobune and about 10,000 red and white lanterns on Miyazu Bay, and about 3,000 fireworks are launched in the night sky.
This is one of the three great floating Lanterns in Japan.
You can enjoy watching lights at not only the night sky but also the sea.
You can also feel the sound of fireworks in your bady at this event.
The venue is surrounded by hills on three sides, so the sound echoes.
You cannot feel the sound at another fireworks festival.
After the fireworks display finish, people start dancing traditional Japanese dance called Bon Odori Dance.
