What people get amazed is its magnificent floats called "Yatai."
Each region in Shinjo city makes a float based on one scene of Kabuki or Old Japan's Folk Tale.
Children hold the rope and pull the float with traditional music and big calls.
When I was a child, I took part in Shimokanezawa's float and paraded all over the city.
I like to join the festival both as a puller and as a spectator.
