China Town
Whether it be the United States or Japan, it always amused me how a visit to a Chinese festival in China Town hardly turns up any Chinese. Visit an event held in Yokohama China Town and you will see mostly Japanese and foreign tourists. This even seems to hold true on Chinese New Year. Makes one wonder just how "Chinese" China Town is. In any case, lion dancing is always fun to watch. Especially when the blue lion is a crowd pleaser.
