Summer in Japan is one of the most exciting times of the year. It is the season of fireworks and Yukata (Casual summer kimonos). celebrated in many cities across Japan. Authentic Japanese culture is on display at these events, for example, traditional folk dance, and Japanese street food. Though the fireworks are the highlight, you should also try sampling the culinary delights from the food stalls. My personal recommendations would be Karaage, (Deep fried chicken) which is famous throughout Oita Prefecture and Kakigori (Shaved ice).
