100 local ladies become shrine maidens for the evening to dance in at Hiroshima Gokoku-jinja Shrine (著作権: GetHiroshima)

Gokoku-jinja Shrine is decorated with hundreds of lanterns (著作権: GetHiroshima)

Things begin with a ceremony in the main shrine building (著作権: GetHiroshima)

Then a ritual lightng of the "kagaribi" (著作権: GetHiroshima)

The first of the dances begin just before dusk (著作権: GetHiroshima)

And as the light fades (著作権: GetHiroshima)

The lanterns are lit (著作権: GetHiroshima)

Full time "miko" shrine maidens perform a more austere dance (著作権: GetHiroshima)

Kagura complete with fireworks (著作権: GetHiroshima)

Dancers take a break (著作権: GetHiroshima)

Before the final set of performances (著作権: GetHiroshima)

And the lamp lit finale (著作権: GetHiroshima)
