My First Matsuri in Japan | Mito Komon Matsuri 2019 | Japanese Festival | Tagalog Vlog
This is a late upload of course. Haha. Anyways, this was my first Japanese Festival experience. Dati sa anime ko lang 'to nakikita ngayon real life na. Ashjdndkdkd anyway, enjoy watching!
Disclaimer: I didn't attend this festival dahil nakikiisa ako or I believe sa sinasamba nila. I was there because it was a popular tourist activity at napapanuod ko lang siya sa mga anime so I wanted to see and experience for myself. Above anything, it's a cultural experience. Nothing more, nothing less. Whatever you may think about this video is beyond my control.
P. S. Also found out that it is not a religious activity but a commemoration of one of their old feudal lords. Therefore is a cultural festival.

Plum blossoms Japanese Flowers Spring MUME UME
I like flower viewing very much in Japan. It's done every four seasons. In winter, winter camellia. Tsubaki who puts a deep red flower is appreciated from the inside in the room in a little winter with the bleak color. From February, March is plum. There is a famous plum orchard nationwide Osaka-jo park, Kitano-tenmangu and Kairakuen. This plum is the plum which blooms in Tenmangu in neighborhood. It isn't a flashy flower like Sakura. Pretty flowers. A flower which suits the world of Japanese WABI,SABI.

Mito Komon and Kamakura.
The legendary Mito Komon (Mitsukuni Tokugawa) was one of the most beloved figures of 17th century Japan. He was a cousin of the ruling Tokugawa shoguns, but unlike them, he was an avid patron of Kamakura, the first capital of the shoguns.
