  • Comment

    The company I worked for during my career was located at the foot of the bridge in Nihonbashi, and I actually carried a mikoshi at the Sanno Festival once myself. I came to watch because some of my former colleagues there were carrying a mikoshi at the Sanno Festival.
    I am currently working to promote the appeal of the kimono.
