As Japan celebrates the Obon holiday season, a group of students studying abroad from the University of Oregon had the opportunity to attend a traditional festival at Ikegami Honmonji Temple in southern Tokyo. Dressed in “yukata” (summer kimono), they participated in the traditional Bon Odori dances after taking a class on the moves and the history of Obon. The festival also included street vendors selling “takoyaki” and other classic festival food. (Camryn Privette photos)
