Interesting things are also the lamps that adorn the shrines and the long hallways in the festival. And before the festival is over, do not forget to visit the light from the long lamp to the Omiya shrine. Or the light that shone on the gods until midnight on the 17th of August, and more than 4,000 fireworks showing up on the night of the 15th on the Kikuchi River.
