Many people wearing traditional samurai clothes marched with horses in the central Utsunomiya city. The parade was very beautiful and they held Yabusame practices.
Yabusame is a traditional Japanese mounted archery; an archer on a running horse shoots wooden targets.
Yabusame practices had been held in front of Futarasan shrine, banba-hiroba space before, but this year, it was held in castle park.
