SUMMARY:River Opening 川開き　かわびらき
DESCRIPTION:Summer River Festivals\nThese are events that celebrate the beginning of the cool breeze from the river that cools things down in summertime and also serve as water god festivals (MizuGami) for the provision of water victims and prayers for water disaster prevention. They take place from the beginning of July to the beginning of August for various rivers. Among them, the opening of the Sumida River between Ryogoku and Asakusa in Tokyo is very famous (the Asakusa Fireworks Festival). Since the mid-Edo period, elaborate fireworks displays have become popular, and many people come from all over to see them. \nReferences\nIn English\n https://visitmiyagi.com/events_festivals/ishinomaki-kawabiraki-festival/ ( https://visitmiyagi.com/events_festivals/ishinomaki-kawabiraki-festival/ ) \nhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sumidagawa_Fireworks_Festival ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sumidagawa_Fireworks_Festival )\nIn Japanese\nhttps://kotobank.jp/word/川開き-48345 ( https://kotobank.jp/word/川開き-48345 )\nhttp://www.kawabiraki.com/ ( http://www.kawabiraki.com/ )\nPhoto thanks to thr.mlit.go.jp ( http://www.thr.mlit.go.jp/bumon/b00037/k00290/river-hp/kasen/100kei/miyagi/miyagi08.html ).\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nrakuten_design="slide";rakuten_affiliateId="194c1902.4e292998.194c1903.70e7fb9d";rakuten_items="ctsmatch";rakuten_genreId="0";rakuten_size="728x200";rakuten_target="_blank";rakuten_theme="gray";rakuten_border="on";rakuten_auto_mode="off";rakuten_genre_title="off";rakuten_recommend="on";rakuten_ts="1584940527191";\nIf these articles have helped you in any way please feel free to click here to help support us by making a donation on PayPalBuy me a coffee, or two, or three ;-DClick Here for PayPal\n
