Nishi Obon - Dancing 3

This is a close-up picture of the North side of the dance circle. This dance involves a bit of hopping, almost a slight trot, which is why it looks like the people might have been running. Notice the different colored hapi coats that the people are wearing. Each color represents a different temple. There were many different temples present. It is nice to know that these temples receive support from neighboring communities.
