Aoba Festival, June 15, 2018

This is a festival celebrating the birth of Kobo Daishi (Kukai) on June 15.

The name “Aoba” means “green leaves,” which is appropriately used to name the festival held at a time of new leaves.

On this day, Koyasan is a truly Buddhist-centered town, with citizens and worshippers spreading out on the roads performing the “Daishi Ondo.” (pictured above)
