On Sunday, October 18, 2026, nine international students from our university participated in the Autumn Festival hosted by the Yoshijima-Higashi Neighborhood Association in Naka Ward, Hiroshima City.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the festival, the students joined in carrying a traditional mikoshi (portable shrine) through the neighborhood and experienced the lively atmosphere of a Japanese autumn festival. They also enjoyed taking part in mochi-maki (rice cake tossing) and had the opportunity to interact with local residents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The students shared lunch with members of the community and received warm hospitality throughout the day. They were also given handmade zori sandals as souvenirs. The festival provided a valuable opportunity for the students to learn more about Japanese culture and local traditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the members of the Yoshijima-Higashi Neighborhood Association for providing such a wonderful cultural experience for our students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
