Karatsu: A Harvest Festival from a Turbulent Sea

Close to the Asian continent, Karatsu has long been early to adopt mainland culture. Its bright, open atmosphere is still going strong, supported by the many blessings of the Genkai Sea. At the "Karatsu Kunchi" festival, 14 yama parade floats walk majestically through the town. On this program, we introduce viewers to the people and ocean of Karatsu.
