Photos taken on July 6th. The annual summer event 'Enmusubi Furin'. I wore Yukata, and came to Kawagoe on the first day of this event. Waking around the path of wind bells, and feeling the comfortable winds, I felt refreshed so much, though the weather forecast was rainy. You can see the beautiful scenery of green leaves and colorful wind bells.

As an autumn special thing, Kawagoe Festival has some large floats parade the streets of tasteful historical town. It's worth seeing in daytime, but the night becomes more exciting! When the floats meet each other, they display their showy lanterns.◎Though there're some toll parking area, they get very crowded every year. It's better to use public transportation such as JR, Toubu Tojo Line, or Seibu Shinjuku Line.
