In midsummer, many step out in yukata, or summer kimono, and gather in parks which are colorfully decorated with lanterns – to eat, drink and perform traditional dances to the beat of Japanese folk music. This type of gathering is called “Bon Odori,” a traditional summer festival that is held throughout Japan.
