Further information
In Japan, it is believed that there are "eight million gods" (gods reside in various things), and people have worshipped them since ancient times.
"Festivals" are held to express gratitude to nature and gods and to cultivate the joy of living. There are historical festivals rooted in the land all over Japan, and they range from traditional festivals to strange festivals, and are important to devout Japanese people.
This book features attractive festivals from all over the country. It features dynamic illustrations that give you a sense of the elaborately designed floats and the festival atmosphere, and carefully depicts the craftsmanship of the floats that you cannot see up close. The festival illustrations are listed in order of the month they are held, so it is also fun to actually go to the festival and sketch them while enjoying it.
The parts opposite the line drawings also introduce the origins of the festivals and the times they are held. It also touches on history that you cannot learn from guidebooks. This book is dedicated to those who love festivals but can’t go see them because they’re too far away, and to "festival people" who love festivals more than they love food!
This beautiful illustration book is highly recommended for passionate festival lovers, those who want to learn about the history of festivals, those interested in the design and culture of floats.
