Hiroshima Lantern Festival, Japan
Toro nagashi is a Japanese ceremony in which participants
float paper lanterns down a river; toro is traditionally another word for
lantern, while nagashi means "cruise, flow". This is primarily done
on the last evening of the Bon Festival festival based on the belief that this
guides the spirits of the departed back to the other world.
The ceremony may be done on some other days of the year for
other reasons such as to commemorate those lost in the bombing of Hiroshima and
those who died on Japan Airlines Flight 123; or in other areas of the world,
such as Hawaii, to commemorate the end of World War II. The Bon Festival takes
place on the thirteenth to sixteenth of August or July, depending on the
calendar you go by. The white lanterns are for those who have died in the past
year. Sources
