Between 6th and 8th July, at Iriya Kishimojin Temple in Ueno, it was held the Iriya Asagao Ichi (Morning Glory Fair).
The schedule varies every year, so if you want to participate in 2010, you should inquire in advance. Last year, when I participated, the fair took place between 18th and 20th July. I knew that the fair attracts over 500,000 visitors, so to avoid the heat and congestion, I went in the morning.
I got off the train at the Iriya Station, and passing under the arcade announcing the event, I headed towards the temple, on Kototoi-dori.
In the temple courtyard and on the street there were dozens of stands, loaded with asagao pots:
Târgul de zorele de la templul Iriya Kishimojin
Între 6 şi 8 iulie, la templul Iriya Kishimojin din Ueno a avut loc târgul de flori Iriya Asagao (Morning Glory).
Data variază de la an la an, deci dacă vreţi să participaţi anul următor trebuie să vă interesaţi din timp. Anul trecut, când am participat eu, a avut loc pe 18-20 iulie. Târgul atrage peste 500.000 de vizitatori, aşa că pentru a evita căldura şi aglomeraţia, m-am dus de dimineaţă.
Am coborât la staţia Iriya, am trecut pe sub arcada care anunţa evenimentul şi am mers pe Kototoi-dori spre templu.
În curtea templului şi pe stradă erau zeci de tarabe, pline de ghivece cu asagao:
