Secret talent of Akita locals: carrying a 50kg / 12m high lantern pole on your forehead / shoulder / hand…you name it!!
Between August 3-6 Akita City is alight (literally) with the thrills and skills of the Kanto Lantern Festival. Audita (Indonesia) captured all the action for us!
Be sure to schedule your trip to Japan in summer next year!!
