The Matsuri

The annual village festival 'Matsuri' is held April 29.
People from young to old are cooperated and went round the area with portable shrine.
It's one of the traditional events in the local town.
But there are fewer young generation and kids in the area.
It's a problem to take after the traditional ritual to the next age.
I'm also tiring to join that event.
I'm sure neighbor's association must be but old customs should be improved.

    1. I came to think for whom the matsuri festival is.
      Recently young people don't seem to be attracted to that event but just the seniors try to keep the tradition.To attract young generation, something should be improved.
