September is the month when the summer heat gradually subsides and we begin to feel the arrival of autumn. In Tokyo, a range of events take place, including traditional local festivals and occasions where you can experience Japanese culture. Here, we’d like to introduce three recommended events for September that you can easily visit from the vicinity of NEIJU Apartment Hotel. 🏮 1. Ōmiya Hachiman Festival 15 September and 18–21 September | Suginami Ward An autumn festival held at Ōmiya Hachiman Shrine. Through the excitement of the mikoshi processions and the lively atmosphere of the neighbourhood, you can experience Japan’s traditional festival culture up close. ⛩️ 2. Hikawa Shrine Annual Grand Festival 19 September (Sat) and 20 September (Sun) | Nakano Ward The Hikawa Shrine Annual Grand Festival, when the streets of Nakano are enveloped in a festive atmosphere.
