I Accidentally Found a Traditional Festival in Kyoto (Imamiya Shrine Matsuri)
Imamiya Shrine is one of the oldest shrines in Kyoto, and every year in May the traditional Matsuri celebration takes place. I accidentally discovered this rare celebration of the cultural heritage of Japan. Featuring the decorated ox-cart pulling, colourful costumes, shrine maidens and interesting architecture, this is a rarely seen celebration not to be missed. Join me on an authentic adventure, as I guide you through the ancient traditions and cultural heritage of the real Kyoto.
