After two years of absence because of Covid, Bon Odori (盆踊り), the dance at the end of the summer where a group of dancers is circle dancing on a scaffold and people are following around it, was held again in Asakusa. This one was on the grounds of Higashi Honganji (東本願寺) temple and the atmosphere was really good!
