For more information, check out the Jidai Matsuri page on our website:
www.discoverkyoto.com/event-c...
Considered to be one of the top three festivals in all of Kyoto despite its status as a relatively new tradition, Heian Shrine's Jidai Matsuri (Festival of the Ages) is held on October 22nd from noon each year.
The festival is primarily composed of a two kilometer, five hour long procession of countless volunteers dressed in historical garb representing Japanese cultural history from the Meiji era all the way back to the Enryaku era in the 780’s. Painstakingly recreated and researched, going so far as to even make and dye the fabric using the same techniques as they used a thousand years ago, the procession is akin to watching a living history museum march by. Not only do famous historical figures and princesses make appearance, but warriors, priests, politicians, merchants, and commoners are all represented. With that many characters, the Jidai Matsuri gives a very comprehensive look in to the clothing and appearance of Japanese past.

@@chicxulub2947 What? No. Where did you get this idea? Most records all over the world hae been lost due to natural disasters (from which Japan is not excepted) and simply time. A lot of things we write on disintegrate over the centuries, especially if people don't think they are important enough to save. Things like birth records, tax collection, basic court rulings, market transactions, etc. I think the place with the greatest access to these kinds of things is England because the manorial rolls were preserved (though most are inaccessible right now due to the sheer amount of them that we have and that they are mostly in regional storage. We have an incredible amount of information on Italy, the seat of Catholic power, we have tons of stuff on Spain, we're even finding new stuff in Eastern Europe. A lot of stuff from Japan is also semi-legendary and shouldn't be taken as direct records of events.

Wow, I saw this festival in 2008. It was amazingly beautiful. The costumes were gorgeous and the parade a real cultural feast. My Japanese penpal since 1971 and her family took us to this festival. An English teacher I had back in 1971 had asked our class one day if we wanted a penpal from Japan, and if we did put our name and address on a list that was going around the class. We also had to pay for the stamp. I might be the only one from my class still writing my penpal and I've been to Japan 3 times now. I've been taking Japanese (now online with my Japanese class since the pandemic.) The 20-30 year old students in my class are amazing students and it gives me a lot of hope for the future knowing them. I can hardly wait to get back. Thanks for posting this beautiful festival. I love Japan!

She is known for initiating 'sarugaku', a form of theatre that significantly contributed to the development of Noh, a traditional Japanese theatrical form. Though details of her life remain unclear, it is generally thought that she was active between the late 10th and early 11th centuries. Her artistic influence continues to impact Japanese culture, particularly in the development of Noh.

Well, that was a very nice little history lesson. What beautiful costumes! If I ever get the chance to travel to Japan, the first place I want to see is Kyoto. It looks like it is a very lovely city.

This is so amazing. I'll have to watch again and pause it. I have never seen the likes of it anywhere, such an ambitious performance, to represent thousands of years of history and knowing Japan, it is as accurate as they could make it, including the materials used.

Oh I am feeling so called to visit... and if I am meant to, then the path there will avail itself. I LOVE watching videos from folks in Japan taking ferries, trains, and visiting shrines and temples. As an American, I'm intrigued with Japanese cuisine, the many interesting items in vending machines, and the traditional Japanese architecture. The more remote parts of Japan would be nice to experience, which is when I come to visit... I'll happily take sleeper train and enjoy the countryside views. Happy to have found this channel.

Oh man. It's an awesome idea when Japanese has this festival as tradition. A great way to demonstrate the culture, historical events, civilization through ages. -____- I wish my country could restore the clothes culture, weapons, historical figures in different timelines like Japanese did. This is a good way to demonstrate the history events and maintain the history value. I feel Vietnamese hold the history event by separating and putting it into different regions, each region has different histories and cultures and It is really hard for people to see it in complete picture, because it's lack of connection, and discrete, wish they could do the same as Japanese. Making it a whole by doing a big festival, so that it would be easier for common people to access. Great job Japan!

This genuinely took me an hour to watch, as I kept pausing to admire not just the outfits being worn, but the equipment and instruments being carried and played as well. EDIT: I'm from the United Kingdom, and I don't think we have anything anywhere near this. I know in Scotland, they celebrate their history, I remember the sword and axe fights, cabar tossing, traditional foods, but never anything like this. There's so much respect for tradition, and people, not only are the male figures from history brought in, but female figures as well, which isn't done a lot in traditional celebrations.
