The Star Festival

 

Yesterday, it was the Star Festival. Do you know the Star Festival? Today, I will take about it. It was a seasonal festival such as Japan, Taiwan and China. Also, it came from China in the Nara era. So, I think that its history is very deep. The Star Festival is very famous Altair, Vega, a bamboo leaf, and the Milky Way. Also, The Star Festival holds in each place in Japan. Moreover, we hang the paper of the wish to a bamboo leaf. My house displayed bamboo grass in the Star Festival day every year until I was a primary schoolchild. Of course, the bamboo grass of every year was very small. And I remember that I looked forward to the decoration of the bamboo leaf at the time. So, my house’s bamboo grass was always gaudily decorated. Also, I remember that I wrote a lot of wish at the time. The Star Festival is the day when Altair and Vega can meet once a year. So, it is very special day for them. I always think that I want to see the Milky Way, but I have never seen it. So, I want to see it someday!!
