Taketoro Festival

300 bamboo lanterns (taketoro) will be lighting up the woods around the Edo-era Yokomizo mansion, making for a beautifully mysterious sight. Koto (a traditional Japanese instrument) performances will also take place at this annual festival, which celebrates the autumn moon and sees vendors set up stalls selling tsukimi dango and other seasonal snacks. There's only room for 500 participants, so make sure to arrive early.
