I was out taking pictures one day and happened upon this rather large festival. Its called the Asakusa Sanja Festival. I don't know much about it but apparently the main event is a parade where up to a hundred portable shrines are carried atop peoples shoulders. Most of them being men, wearing traditional cloth thongs! They seemed to be rather enthusiastic as well, singing songs and shouting different grunts. Heres a few photos that I snapped.
