The Tanabata star festival is held in Japan on the 7th day of the 7th month. ✨ It celebrates the once-a-year meeting of 2 lovers represented by the stars Vega and Altair. 🌟💖🌟 The nuns are hanging ornaments and writing wishes on colored strips of paper called ‘tanzaku’. 🎋 They tie these to some bamboo they cut down in the nearby forest.
What would you wish for on Tanabata?🤩
