The celebration of the New Year, the Boys and Girls Parties, the purification, protection and funerary rites, as well as the fertility cults and the end of year ceremonies are some of the festivities and rituals of Japan, a country full of religious traditions mostly originating in Shintoism, to which practices from Buddhism and Christianity were added.

The exhibition Japan: Festivities and Traditions proposes an immersive journey to these festivities.
