Starting July 13th, Gifu Prefecture will be alive with 30 nights of traditional folk dancing and music 🎶! Locals and tourists of all ages move as one during the Gujo Odori Dance, one of several ritual dances collectively inscribed on the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage list in 2022. Vividly dressed dancers sometimes numbering in the thousands, hands clapping 👏 and feet stomping in wooden "geta" sandals, create a rhythmic spectacle. One highlight is the Overnight Dance Festival in August, where energetic participants dance the night away over 4 days. https://lnky.jp/Q9T8TSF #UNESCOIntangibleCulturalHeritage #Gifu

“The show must go on” is commonly heard in showbiz and holds true even on remote Awaji Island in the Seto Inland Sea. Here, the traditional performing art of Awaji Ningyo Joruri has a 500-year history of puppets, tayu (narrators), and players of shamisen (a traditional string instrument) all performing as one. Established in 1964, the Awaji Puppet Theatre has held many shows both in Japan and abroad, preserving the old while adding newer elements in tune with newer times, such as collaborations with ballet 🩰. The theater also runs workshops at schools, and is committed to passing on ningyo joruri culture to the next generation. https://lnky.jp/Oqy8J6S #RegionalRevitalization

Today, July 7th, marks #Tanabata, also known as the Star Festival 🌠! This magical tradition was inspired by the heartbreaking 💔 legend of Hikoboshi and Orihime, star-crossed lovers separated by the Milky Way 🌌 and destined to meet just once a year. Boasting a roughly 1200-year history, Tanabata began in the imperial court and spread to the common people during the Edo era (1603-1868). People celebrate by writing wishes on decorative "tanzaku" paper strips and hanging them on bamboo branches 🎋. Vibrant events abound in places like Kyoto's Kifune Shrine and Asakusa in Tokyo. https://lnky.jp/tBzkMy6
