Festive floats
A parade of floats celebrating Gion Matsuri, a ritual purification of diseases, passes through the streets. Can you spot the model of a mantis on top of one float?
Something fishy
Over by the river, onlookers watch from the bridge as fisherman make their catch of the day.
Face-to-face
There seems to be a bull on the loose! Who do you think would win in a fight between these two crop-carriers?
Visitors from abroad
