祭りの季節である。神社には数多くの屋台が出ている。参拝のついでに屋台によるのか、屋台のついでに参拝するのかと不謹慎なことを考えてしまった。日本は100ベクレルの基準を設けているが最近の検査では不検出が増えている。事故により食の安全の大切さを痛切に思い知らされた。
Japan is famous for the Matsuri Festival. It is originally religious ceremonies at the shrine where Japanese pray to God for health and peace. At the same time many Yatai (stands) are set up and various food and toys are sold. Everyone can enjoy eating food and playing games there. So I went to the Matsuri to see Yatai food.
However, the Japanese government set the limit at 100 Becquerels per kilogram of food. Actually, detected Cesium 134 or 137 from vegetables or water are very low or Zero in Tokyo. I think everyone in Japan eat safe food because of the food safety low.

During the festival, Japanese carry the Mikoshi ( portable shrine ) through the streets to bring God's blessing to each home.

神輿は旧約聖書に書かれた聖櫃に似ていますね。
文化的な繋がりがありそうです。
Have you ever seen Mikoshi ?
Amazingly It looks like the Ark.
I suppose that Mikoshi may be originate from the Ark.

However the U.S. Government continues to recommend that U.S. citizens avoid travel to destinations within the 50-mile evacuation zone of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Plant. Tokyo is located out of 50-mile radius from the Nuclear Plant. It is safe to stay in Tokyo. And Japanese food is
safe too. Try it !
