成人式

今日は明治神宮に初詣に行ってきました。

日本では、成人の日で多くの新成人の人たちが、振袖・紋付・袴姿で賑わっていました。

The second Monday of January is "Seijin no hi" (Coming-of-age Day) in Japan. People celebrate this day to welcome the young men and women, who have turned or will turn the age of 20 during the current year, as new members of society!! Ceremonies are held in every city, town and village. The people who have reached the age of twenty get the right to vote and also allowed to smoke and drink.
