On Sunday and Tuesday holidays taking advantage of Golden Week , we were visiting the parents of Ayumi in Fuchu. We were fortunate, that in Fuchu Day is done 3 to 5 the Kurayami matsuri (festival), another matsuri more Fuchu is made ​​as Kuri matsuri longer speak to you last year.

As for the Kuragami matsuri, it is like most festivals in Japan, and even the concept of the festival is very similar to those of Spain. The very concisely festival is to worship the temple that is in Fuchu called Ookunitama and walking the omikoshi (standard with the god / saint inside), and return to the temple on the last day surrounded by all the people of at Fuchu least 3 generations living in Fuchu.
The last day is done as a "going street" where people wear traditional clothing of happi called matsuri.

Moreover, these days, around the temple, there are plenty of small "paraetas" where games are fair as typical shotgun shooting, catching fish with papers etc and above all many stores that sell food to go eat some "tapas" in the matsuri.

Then I leave a video and some photos of the matsuri.
