Kanko Boko (函谷鉾) Musicians

Posted by MShades (Kyoto, Japan) on 15 July 2008 in People & Portrait.

Musicians up on Kanko Boko.

Kanko Boko is apparantly based on another Chinese story, wherein a powerful lord was able to escape the clutches of his host by way of his retainer's ability to imitate a rooster. Hey, no one ever said the old stories had to make sense. Anyway, this one has a 22 meter tall mast, and more of the beautiful tapestries....
