Ohara Matsuri is Kagoshima's biggest festival. Held yearly somewhere in November, this celebration is unique in its own way..people from all walks of life jointly celebrate this 2 days fiesta by dancing at the street, savouring Kagoshima's specials dishes and not to forget tto taste Kagoshima's famous shochu wine. Rotaract club of Kagoshima along with the International students of Kagoshima University had also taken part in the festival. Casey, Anne, Juana and I also took part in the non-stop 1 & a half hour traditional street dancing of Kagoshima. It was really a thrilling experience because a street more than a kilometre was packed with people wearing different cloths were seen dancing with the same style, same timing according to the same music. International students of course were very outstanding due to our colours, languages and also the symbol of our countries' flag painted on our face. A very good experience that was too good to last.
