Moon Viewing Party was held at Daikakuji-temple in Kyoto-city on 15, 16, 17 September. Kyoto has few templets where you can view the moon reflected on the water’s surface. I think Daikakuji-temple is number one spot for moon viewing.
Moon viewing party in Japanese is “Tsukimi”, this is Japanese custom. We enjoy and celebrate the beautifull mid-September full moon. We also say “Chusyu no meigetsu” (means mid-autumn full moon). People offer Tsukimi-dango(rice dumplings) and Susuki(silver garasses) to the moon in appreciation for good harvest.
