Before Setsu-bun Festival in Kyoto, Japan

I walked pass the shrine named Kumano-jinja Shrine. It's a local shrine in Kyoto. Usually there's almost no people. But, on the day, 2nd, it was a bit crowded. 3rd or February is the day for Setsu-bun Festival(節分祭).  They prepared for the festival.



I listened to the music. It was just from speakers... But, the atmosphere was very nice.

Setsu-bun Festival is one of the most popular festivals of Japan. When you find Oni, which is a Japanese ogre, please throw roasted beans to expel it. It's fun!
