#kyoto#kyototrip#gionfestival#japan#japantrip#yamahokofloat 京都に古くから伝わる祇園祭・山鉾巡行。 伝統に挑戦する女性たちの物語です。 Heisei Onna boko Sayanekai is an all-female musical ensemble that plays festival music (hayashi) atop a hoko float for the Gion Matsuri. They continue to pursue the challenge of participating in the Yamahoko Junko parade—the highlight of the festival—which traditionally maintains a prohibition on women.
