Essay 2-05; My Happy Place


I introduce to my secret place in Kumamoto. My secret place is Honmyo – temple. This place is near my house. Do you know Kiyomasa Kato? He is held a ceremony there. He is a historic person.

This place will be held a festival in the latter half of every July. This festival is called
“Tonshae”. We usual call “Tonsha”. Also, many people will visit with family, lovers, friends and so on. They often wear yukata or jinbei. The night always bustles and they spend a good night. On this festival day, both sides of the street are lined with stalls. These are about 150 stalls. Many stalls sell many kinds of shaved ice, ice candy, cotton candy, candies shaped many characters, frankfurters, grilled chicken, chow mein, juice, grilled squid, masks, yo – yo, goldfish and so on. We must go up in stone steps until we arrive at the top of Honmyo – temple. They are tired, but they can enjoy until the last because many stalls are lined until the top. They reach the top soon if they talk with family, lovers, friends and so on, eat kinds of food or play a game.

I went this festival with my friends last year. A friend and I wore yukata. This festival day is the first day that I will wear yukata or jinbei on the year because the event is held on the beginning summer. I can see to local friends on this event, so I can have a good time. I took university friends to this event. I want many friends to visit my local festival, so this summer festival is so funny! Please come “Tonsha” next year :) I will be looking forward to see you.
