This project is a collaboration between the Kyoto Newspaper, a local newspaper, and Stroly, a digital map platform from Kyoto.This festival, which has been held in Kyoto for more than 1,000 years, is the result of a great variety of cultures and histories that have been interwoven into the festival to this day. The Gion Festival is famous for the Yamahoko and Yamahoko Junko floats, which are deployed in the city center for only a few days, but in fact, related events are held throughout the city of Kyoto during the month of July every year. The Gion Festival is such a unique festival, and one of its charms is that there are 100 different ways to enjoy it for every 100 people. We hope that this Gion Festival Digital Map will enrich your stay and experience in Kyoto.
