π 7th July marks Tanabata, also known as the Star Festival. π It is the Japanese festival where people write their wishes on tanzaku strips and hang them up on bamboo branches. π₯° The first festivities begin on 7 July and the celebration is held on various days between July and August. π€ It is believed that if it rains, the Milky Way cannot be crossed. Because of that, many people hang teru teru bozu, a small traditional handmade doll made of white paper or cloth. πJapanese people hang them outside their windows to hope for sunny weather. πββοΈ Are you planning to celebrate Tanabata? #tanabata #tanabatamatsuri #tanabatafestival #japanevent #japanevents #δΈε€ #japanfestival #japanfestivals #japanesefestival #japanesefestivals #japanholidays #japaneseculture #japanculture #japanculture #japanlove #tanabataevent #tanabataevents #japaneseshistory #japanhistory #japanlegend (at Japan) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfsIx2rBuvh/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
