Welcoming 2009
On the 2nd of January every year, one section of the imperial palace is open to the public for the emperor to make his new year greeting. This was the 2nd time i’ve attended this event. More information on this event here.
This one below was from 2008.

Nice set. I don’t think I’ve ever seen that many Japanese flags at one time. It seems to be a touchy subject for many.

Thank you Mike. They give the flags out as you enter the grounds. I would love to see the stock of the printing house that puts them together.
And yes, a touchy subject indeed.
