Green Tea - Cutting Machine / 茶刈り機

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7sD90tF87bc


This video shows how machines are used by Japanese tea farmers to cut green tea leaves from the plant/tree. The cutter is operated by two people and it is very common in my part of Japan (Fukuroi near Hamamatsu City). You will often see husband and wife working together to control the cutting machine as seen in this video.

鯉のぼり - Koinobori - Carp Streamer

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xz2EnpBQvSI

Koinobori (鯉幟), meaning "carp streamer" in Japanese, are carp-shaped wind socks traditionally flown in Japan to celebrate Tango no Sekku (端午の節句), a traditional calendrical event which is now designated a national holiday; Children's Day. These wind socks are made by drawing carp patterns on paper, cloth or other nonwoven fabric. They are then allowed to flutter in the wind. They are also known as satsuki-nobori (皐幟).
Children's Day takes place on May 5. Landscapes across Japan are decorated with koinobori from April to early May, in honor of sons and in the hope that they will grow up healthy and strong.

浜松祭り - 凧 - 龍禅寺町組 2013 - Hamamatsu Festival- Japan

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rimBXY1uMsY

浜松祭り - 凧 - 龍禅寺町組
Hamamatsu Festival is the biggest festival in Shizuoka Prefecture and is one of the most well known festivals in Japan because the main part of the festival is flying kites.

浜松まつりの特徴のひとつは、「都市まつり」ということ。東京の天下祭りや京都の祇園祭と違って、神社仏閣の祭礼とは関係ない"市民参加"のまつりなのです。

昭和28年頃までは、「龍」の字は白抜きであったが、28年以降は、「龍」の字を赤一色に定め、現在に至っている。
