The Japanese word [sacrifice] means festival. Japanese festivals originate from religious beliefs, and some are produced in coordination with the alternation of seasons; There are not only ancient etiquette from the royal court and samurai family, but also folk customs from various villages. With the changes of the times, these festivals may lose their original religious color or add a lot of modern flavor, but to some extent, these festivals reflect Japan's cultural characteristics, living habits, and prayers and blessings for a better life. As for books, I recommend the following:
