  • FEBRUARY 11, 2018 - Men wearing loincloths march to the sea during Toba-no-Hi-matsuri, a fire festival held annually at Toba Shinmeisha, a Shinto shrine in Nishio, Japan. <br />
<br />
The festival begins with men walking from the shrine to the sea, and standing in the ocean wearing only loincloths as part of a purification ritual.<br />
<br />
The celebration culminates with the burning of torches built from bamboo and pampas grass. The burning of the torches allows the locals to divine the year’s weather and harvest.<br />
