Hakone Daimyo Gyoretsu (feudal lord's procession)




Hakone Daimyo gyoretsu will be held on Nov.3, (Culture Day,
National holiday)this year. I took picture a few years ago,
but it is very difficult to choose a picture that might notinfringe
on portrait right. If you are interested in Japanese costume
of daimyo (feudal lord's), it would be worth visiting. I will
upload some pictures in my facebook album.
