Shimizu Tanabata Festival
At the Shimizu Ginza shopping area just outside Shimizu Station, this colorful Tanabata Festival took place on the first weekend in July. Tanabata festivals take place in communities all over Japan at street festivals along shopping malls and streets.
Also known as the star festival, Tanabata is based on the Chinese folktale of the Weaver Girl and the Cowherd, a romantic explanation on the formation of the Milky Way in which two stars are separated on either side of the night sky as punishment for their forbidden love. They are allowed to meet only once a year on the seventh day of the seventh month, the evening of Tanabata.
Japanese are fond of love stories and romanticism and as you can see by their participation, the Tanabata story touches the young and the old alike. It’s a showplace for wearing the Yukata (a summer kimono worn by both women and men). The most common tanabata decorations are colorful streamers, symbolizing the weaving of threads. There is also a place for people to write their wishes on tanzaku papers (colorful, small strips of papers) and hang them on bamboo branches.
TANABATA FESTIVAL | Travelling Japan With Abigail
We were so lucky to be able to experience the authenticity of the Tanabata Festival in Shimizu-ku, in the Shizuoka Prefecture of Japan.
Of course, as tourists we went to very well-known spots, but it was so heartwarming and exciting to experience a Japanese tradition in all its glory.
The streets were filled with laughing children and happy adults, many in traditional wear. Pathways are filled with scents of delicious fried foods and snacks. There were plenty of games for the children, beautiful sounds, and waving wishes tied to the bamboo trees.
They were even selling helium in bags with straws for 300 yen!
CAN YOU TELL I LOVE JAPAN?
Special shoutout to Kai and Mariko for being both our guides, and our friends. All my love and luck goes to you!

Tanabata Festival - Shimizu
The colorful Shimizu Tanabata Festival takes place at the Shimizu Ginza shopping area outside Shimizu Station. Also known as the star festival, Tanabata literally means the night of the seventh. Tanabata is a festival based on the Chinese legend of two lovers who live in the sky.
It was love at first sight when Orihime, a weaver princess, met Hikoboshi, a cow herder prince. They were happily married and enjoyed being together so much they completely neglected their work. This angered the Heavenly King and he separated them to opposite sides of the Milky Way. Later, feeling sorry for the two separated lovers, the King let them meet once a year on the evening of the seventh day of July provided they work as hard as they had in the past. So Orihime and Hikoboshi are able to cross the Milky Way to meet on the evening of Tanabata. It's believed that Orihime and Hikoboshi can't see each other if the day is rainy, so people pray for good weather and also make wishes for themselves At a Tanabata festival people write their wishes on tanzaku papers (colorful, small strips of papers) and hang them on bamboo branches.
