Kitakyushu travel guideTobata Gion Oo-Yamagasa is one of the most exciting summer festivals in Kitakyushu .festival The Festival is registered on UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2016. The festival has a lot of energy and is very dynamic as is the case with festivals such as the Hakata Gion Yamagasa,with young men wearing the happi (festival costume) and hachimaki (head band), carrying the Yamagasa (festival float) and walking around the town shouting “yoitosa yoitosa”. What is remarkable is the way the character of the Yamagasa changes from daytime,with the Nobori Yamagasa (festival floats with flags); to nighttime,with the Chochin Yamagasa ( festival floats with lanterns). The highlight is the Chochin Yamagasa Contest held in Tobata Ward Office on Saturday night.

About JapanHOME The First atomic bomb of humanity was used in Hiroshima The nuclear weapons should never be used again It is the only structure left standing in the area where the first atomic bomb exploded on August 6 1945. The Atomic Bomb Dome is the ruin of the former Hiroshima Prefectural Industrial Promotion Hall that was destroyed when the first nuclear weapon, atomic bomb, in human history was dropped by an American Air Force bomber in 1945. Because the atomic blast explored almost directly above this spot, the walls of the building were partially spared from destruction. The building has been preserved in the same state as is was found immediately after the bombing. It now serves as a reminder of nuclear devastation and as a symbol of hope for world peace and the elimination of all nuclear weapons. Atomic Bomb Dome, testifying to its tragic history, is also a powerful symbol of Hiroshima’s plea that nuclear weapons should never be used again. In 1996, the building was listed as a World Heritage Site as both an important ruin as a symbol of hope for world peace.
