I took a few photos 48 years ago at the Lunar New Year celebration in Naha while I was in the Marine Corp. and stationed there in 1978.

Very nice photos, thanks for sharing!
I see that this event, Jyuri Uma Matsuri (Juri Horse Festival) has been taking place for over 300 years now. [Here](https://okinawa-repeat.com/event-naha-juriuma/)’s an article about it, and [here](https://okinawa–repeat-com.translate.goog/event-naha-juriuma/?_x_tr_sl=ja&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_pto=wapp)’s the translated version.
Honestly, besides the older style of film these pictures look like they could have been taken today. Lots has changed, but it’s surprising how much has stayed the same
Shocking how little the way people here dress has changed
What a beautiful photos!
That last photo… her expression is just incredible.
