Okutone Suigennomori

Gozan no Okuribi (五山送り火, 5-mountain farewell fire) is a bonfire arranged in kanji, and in the shape of a boat, and torii on 5 mountains surrounding the city of Kyoto, Japan. This tradition is the highlight of the Obon celebration in Kyoto, and is held every August 16th. The tradition of lighting okuribi (fires to bring spirits home) is intended to usher in the return of spirits who are believed to visit the homes of family or children during Obon celebrations. Gozan no Okuribi is also known as Daimonji no Okuribi (大文字の送り火), because fire is ignited to form the character (moji or monji) for "dai" (大, large). Besides Kyoto, Daimonji no Okuribi is also held in several other places in Japan. In the Edo period, okuribi were not only lit in 5 locations. Back then there were still bonfires arranged in the hiragana letters for "i", and the kanji for "ichi" (one), "hebi" (snake), and "naginata" (machete-edged spear). Gozan no Okuribi is one of the 4 major celebrations in Kyoto, along with the Aoi Matsuri, Gion Matsuri, and Jidai Matsuri. #camping#themeparks#nationalpark#lakes#infinitypool
