Dosojin fire festival(Nozawa onsen)

January 14 (Sun), 2012

A spectacular traditional festival, this is counted as one of the three major fire festivals in Japan. This—the village’s largest and the most important event of the year—is very impressive and exciting when the sparks fly from the torches.
