Mozu Hachimangu Tsukimi Matsuri (Moon-Viewing Futon-Daiko Festival)
百舌鳥八幡宮 月見祭
Osaka · Kansai
Nine neighborhoods parade heavy, elaborately decorated 'futon-daiko' drum floats -- some weighing around two tonnes -- into and out of Mozu Hachimangu shrine near the Nintoku tomb, timed to the mid-autumn harvest moon; a boisterous but largely locally-known festival overshadowed by Kishiwada's Danjiri.
