My neighborhood's shrine festival~~~

On May 3th and 4th,in my neighborhood's shrine will hold its annual festival.Their main attraction is the horse riding by the children from primary school and secondary school.

The children will perform the stunts by riding the horses with their hands stretch out without holding to the reins of the horse.This performance required alot of training and courage,and it is also very dangerous as the horse will be running at a high speed.

This horse riding performance was praticed a long time ago,as they are a regular sports in old Japan's time.Before they also do the archery while riding the horse too.Here I would like to share a few photos with you all.Hope you like them.
