[googlefont="Yeseva One"]GION MATSURI 2014 Please join the JLS Community in Kyoto on the evening of July 23rd.
Take in the sights and sounds of the Gion Matsuri with friends from the JLS Community.
The Gion Matsuri will have two parades this year. On July 23rd there will not be a parade. Instead, the floats will be on public display. There will be an opportunity to see these massive floats up close. You will even be able to board some of them and have your picture taken. When darkness falls lantern on the floats will be illuminated. It is a very festive atmosphere. The second of the two parades will take place at around 10am the next morning.
We will meet where the Karasuma Station and Shijyo Station concourses intersect at 5PM.
• Karasuma Station, Hankyu Kyoto Line • Shijō Station, Kyoto City Subway Karasuma Line
The Shijō Station is connected with Karasuma Station.
Please plan on arriving early so noone gets left behind. Please wear clothing related to Boston or the JLS community. If you plan to attend please reply to this post.
