[Kyoto] Everyone loves the "Kamakiriyama" @Gion Festival

●Name Kamakiriyama@Gion Festival ●Access 479 Kamakiriyamacho, Nakagyo Ward, Kyoto City 🚗Use nearby parking ●Points The Gion Festival has multiple floats and hoko, and is famous for its large and impressive hoko However, the one everyone loves is the "Kamakiriyama," nicknamed "Praying Mantis Mountain." As the name suggests, this is a unique mountain with a praying mantis on its roof During the parade, it uses a mechanism to make it move realistically This is the only float in the Gion Festival that has a mechanism The benefit is protection from misfortune and epidemics I'm looking forward to the Yamahoko parade on July 17th #KyotoTourism #GionFestival #Festival #TraditionalCulture #777
