Tokyo Hosts Ground Cherry Festival

TOKYO - JULY 08: Visitors walk by the lantern that hangs in the arch of the Kaminarimon, or Thunder Gate, which is the entrance to the Nakamise shopping arcade leading to Sensoji Temple, on July 8, 2008 in the Asakusa neighborhood of Tokyo, Japan. The Ground Cherry Fair is held at the temple on July 9 and 10 each year with about 600,000 expected visitors at the fair where the hozuki are purchased as good luck charms.
