Seijin no Hi

Hello.
This is May in Japan.

Tomorrow is Seijin no Hi.
Seijin no Hi means Coming of Age Day.
It is a Japanese national holiday to celebrate those who have newly become adults.
In Japan people come of age when we are 20 years old.

The coming-of-age ceremonies were held all over Japan.
Many people attend with kimonos at the coming of age ceremony.


I wore a kimono for a coming-of-age ceremony.
We don't have opportunities in kimonos, recently.
It is admiration of the Japanese girls to wear kimonos by the coming-of-age ceremony.

When we wear kimonos, we feel like tense.
It may be to be the first step as adult.

Any way,  congratulations for coming of age !!
