The birthplace of hand-held fireworks, one of the three major fireworks from the Edo period! Come and see the spectacular spectacle!

The #ToyohashiGionFestival is held in Toyohashi, Aichi for three days from the third Friday to the third Sunday of July. The first Friday is hand-held fireworks, Saturday is fireworks, and Sunday is portable shrines. The highlight of the Toyohashi Gion Festival is the hand-held fireworks held on the first Friday. It is said to be the birthplace of hand-held fireworks, one of the three major fireworks of the Edo period. The brave men hold a tube filled with gunpowder, spray sparks straight up, and wait for the gunpowder in the tube to run out while enduring the falling sparks. You can see their brave appearance, and it's a very cool sight. Any man would want to try this at least once. In addition to hand-held fireworks held by men, there are also large-sized random fireworks, and the sparks flying out of a large tube placed on a stand are a spectacular sight. It's a festival that you really want to see at least once! ! [Things to note when viewing] There are no designated viewing seats, so you will have to line up along the approach to the shrine, but if you don't go early you won't be able to get to the front of the venue💦 The hand-held fireworks start at 18:40, so it's best to be there an hour before! However, they go on for quite a long time, so people who are satisfied will move to the back (I think it depends on the person) You can aim for that, but I recommend going as early as possible Aim for the back of the shrine rather than near the entrance to the shrine! Those who use tripods are not prohibited, but please be careful not to cause trouble to those around you⚠️ -------- That's all! What do you think! You should definitely try the hand-held fireworks at least once 😄 ~ ...
