[Gion Festival] This festival is one of Japan's three major holidays.

The Kyoto Gion Festival, formerly known as the Gion Goryoe until the Meiji era, is celebrated at Yasaka Shrine in Kyoto’s Higashiyama-ku neighborhood. The Gion Festival has been a summer tradition in Kyoto since the Joukan era (Jougan era). “Takayama” will return to the festival for the first time in 196 years on March 24. The Takayama Preservation Society, a group of local residents, held a “Hiki-zome (Beginning of towing),” a trial pull of the float, in Kyoto City on March 20. The Takayama has been decorated with textiles and other ornaments, giving it a glamorous appearance.
