At Sanjusangendo in Kyoto, a "Toshiya" event was held, where young people who had just turned 20 years old showed off their archery skills. It is said to have started in the Kamakura period, when samurai competed under the eaves of the main hall to see who could hit the most arrows at the target over the course of a day, and has now become a national archery tournament. Participants were dressed in their best attire and fired powerful arrows at a target 60 meters away. Participant: "I shot my bow with the feeling that I was going to carve out my own future," "I'm grateful to my parents for wholeheartedly supporting me in my pursuit of archery," said one participant. This year, about 1,600 people participated, and each renewed their resolve. ▼TBS NEWS DIG Official Website https://newsdig.tbs.co.jp/ ▼Please subscribe to our channel! / @tbsnewsdig ▼Information provided by "TBS Insiders" https://www.tbs.co.jp/news_sp/tbs-ins... ▼Video provided by "TBS Scoop Post" https://www.tbs.co.jp/news_sp/toukou.... #News #news #TBS #newsdig
