Noh - Performing Art Open-air Tea Ceremony Kabuki Sumo Festival (Matsuri in Japanese )       Matsuri Movie Festival is one of the exciting events you can't miss during your stay in Japan. There are thousands of "Matsuri" succeeded from generation to generation for many years across Japan. All cities, towns and even small villages have their own "Matsuri" with wonder and mystery. I list up some of them and link to the sites that describe what kind of festivals they are. Please, enjoy exploring mystery and wonder of "Matsuri"!
