The Dance at Shuri-jo

Every time we go to Okinawa, we go to Shuri Castle to see the dance.  Over the new year holiday there are extra performances and live Okinawan music.  














I never get tired of the music, the dance and the gorgeous costumes.  Or the castle and its history.

    Very interesting performance. That hat is quite something, and I love the shaggy creature.

    I remember seeing a Japanese doll dressed in the dance costume with that fantastic hat.
