Japans Traditional Festivals

Local Shinto priests playing musical instruments to a merry winding parade full from the all-you-can-drink Sake, and let's not forget the 7ft Phallus, which is floating around. The wooden phallus is carried from the Shinmei Sha Shrine on a large hill or from Kumano-sha Shrine to a shrine called Tagata Jinja.

Expect everything you put in your mouth to be in the shape of a penis (food), ricecakes, penis shaped souvenirs and oddly enough prayers.
