Kanda Matsuri

When I was in Tokyo two weeks ago for Kana’s wedding, I came across some festival activity for the Kanda Matsuri. 

The Kanda Myojin (big shrine) was just a few doors down the street from my hotel, and I emerged onto the street on a Sunday morning to find lots of mikoshi (portable shrines) being carried from small local jinja (shrines) to Kanda Myojin.  It was very colourful!
