Naked Festival Entices Thousands To Ohara

OHARA, JAPAN - SEPTEMBER 23: Portable shrines are carried to the playground of a primary school during the Hadaka Festival (naked festival) on September 23, 2004 in Ohara Town, Chiba Prefecture, Japan. The festival has been held by the town since the Edo period (1603-1867) and the main event, Shiofumi (tide stepping), occurs as the participants carry the portable shrines to the shore and jostle in the warm southern Kuroshio current. Each year, over 70,000 spectators crowd in to see the event. (Photo by Koichi Kamoshida/Getty Images)
