Sanja Matsuri Festival - Asakusa Shrine

The Sanja Matsuri is a Shinto festival which ran from 19-21 May in Asakusa neighbourhood of Tokyo. Portable shrines, called mikoshi are paraded through the streets. These are heavy and require many people to carry them. It is a wild, chaotic, and festive atmosphere!
