Every year in July, Hakata, in Fukuoka, hosts the Hakata Gion Yamakasa Festival, where participants race on a 5km course pushing 1 ton floats. This is a snap I managed to get during one of the practice runs.

I was lucky enough to get to Kanazawa the day before the first snow last year

Sadly, but necessarily, this was knocked down in 2020 as it was too small to accommodate the number of passengers leaving from this exit.
