Cities And Memory

Reitaisai is an important festival held by Shinto shrines in Japan. People from the town where the shrine is located gather and carry a mikoshi (portable shrine) as they parade through the streets. This is a recording capturing the mikoshi approaching and then moving away. Recorded in November 2024 by Miyu Hosoi.
