Let's go see Daimonji Fires together!

16 August 
We are going to see Daimonji Ritual Fires together!!!



The Daimonji Gozan Okuri-bi is one of the four major traditional seasonal events in Kyoto. The fires are set on five mountains in the city and each represents Buddhist symbol, which is used as a way of guiding the spirits of the dead back to the Buddhist Pure Land; Daimonji fire setting starts at 8pm.

We meet at J-Hoppers Lobby and leave at 7pm!
