Festivals in Japan 

​Festival = Matsuri まtすり

Do you celebrate any festivals?

Do you know any myths or legends?


Tanabata たなばた is celebrated in Japan every July
July = shichi getsu しちげつ

The origins of Tanabata date back thousands of years.  

Today, people in Japan still celebrate Tanabata and the coming together of Orihime おりひめ and Hikoboshi ひこぼし every

To honour their togetherness, people write messages of love, friendship and peace on brightly coloured pieces of paper called
Tanzaku たんざく
