Toh-shiya at Sanjusangen-do
For those who want to see some exceptional ceremony in Japan you should come in Kyoto to see the Toh-shiya ceremony. Young girl and boy of 20 years old come in the Sanjusangen-do temple to shoot 2 arrow in a target at 60m.
For those who want to see the girl shooting you should come before 8.00 am, the ceremony start by 100 girl, if you are not be able to find a place to take some picture of the girl you will need to wait the next 1000 boy before seeing again the girl shooting.

Great video!
Is there any particular reason why the target is not shown in the video or pictures?

Good question, there so many people in the show, you could't move without loose you place. So i prefer to shoot the archer and not the target.

great, professional video, well done! I went to Toh-shiya this year, but it's so crowded it's difficult to see the action. You must have been in a really good position!
Is the girl speaking french a friend or you just happened to be that lucky?
Because she has a good accent, at least for that short sentence :)
Really good job, merushi boku! ^^
