Learn Japanese and about Japanese Culture with JapanesePod101.com! One of the three major travel seasons in Japan began Friday, as many Japanese are returning home for the start of O-Bon. In today’s Japanese Culture Class, we’ll take a look at this Japanese Buddhist holiday and Japanese customs and traditions associated with it. Most of the JapanesePod101.com staff has left Tokyo and started their O-Bon yasumi or natsu yasumi, but the remaining members have done their best to ensure this edition of Japanese Culture Class reaches our dedicated listeners. Tune in and find out all about the Bon Festival.

JapanesePod101.com would like to express its sincere gratitude to everyone who took the time to vote for us for Education Podcast of the Year.  Hontō ni arigatō gozaimashita! Your support is truly the source of our energy!
