Maiko from Miyagawa-cho being pulled through Kyoto by young men from their neighborhood.I'm sure you're all sick of seeing pictures from Gion Matsuri, but I just can't help myself! I'll try to write more later...Until then just enjoy the view from here (^_<)
Young women carrying their hanagasa, straw hats covered with fake paper flowers, seek shelter beneath their umbrellas.
Kanazuru, a maiko from Miyagawa-cho.
A young White Herron Dancer giggling as she ran for cover from the relentless rain.
A maiko from Gion.
A shrine maiden of Yasaka Jinja tries to keep her hanagasa in place.
