A few days ago I went to a festival in Osaka with some friends. It's called Tenjin matsuri. I'm not exactly sure what the meaning of the festival is, but I felt like matsuri (Japanese festival) is something I should experience now that I'm still in Japan.
People come dressed in yukata, which is always really fun to see. There's a lot of yummy food you can get from the little stands in the streets. As far as activities go, there was a sort of parade in which people danced and carried things through the streets (I'm so uneducated I'm so sorry haha) and at the end of the day there's a big firework!

I had fun at the festival but I do realise these kind of events are not for me. There are just too many people! I had to squeeze myself through the crowd to head back to the trainstation earlier and I almost had a panic attack from the amount of people around me. I could barely move. So, no, I won't be going to many matsuri's in the future haha!
But it was a good day hanging out with friends nevertheless.
Good night! ♥
