⛵ This model of a Japanese festival float is an impressive one metre tall, but its full-sized counterpart could be up to ten sizes larger!

In summer, these giant floats would parade down the streets of Japan, where for centuries people have celebrated spectacular local festivals with music and dance.

This beautifully crafted model takes the form of a ‘gozabune’ – the state barge used by the sh**un. Shoguns were hereditary military leaders from the Tokugawa house. Try to spot their triple-hollyhock crest on the boat’s raised flags.

You can see this elaborate float on display for the first time in our newest free display, alongside other objects exploring the craftmanship and customs of Japanese summer festivals.

🏛 The Asahi Shimbun Displays ‘Japan’s Festival Floats’ is on display in Room 3 of the Museum until 2 July. Find out more and plan your visit here: http://ow.ly/30MZ50NMKzI

Supported by The Asahi Shimbun

🖼 If this float gets you in the festival spirit then visit the Japanese galleries to see a selection of 60 artworks inspired by summer celebrations. ‘Japan’s Summer Festivals’ will be on display in Rooms 92–94 until November 2023.

🔎 Model of a festival boat on wheeled carriage. Wood, metal and fabric, from Japan, around 1905. Read more: http://ow.ly/O79V50NGVF7

Stonehenge was built to align with the sun on the solstices. On the summer solstice, the sun rises behind the Heel Stone in the north-east part of the horizon and its first rays shine into the heart of Stonehenge. On the winter solstice, the sun sets to the south-west of the stone circle.

📍 Hurlers Stone Circles - Cornwall
According to local legend, The Hurlers were men who were turned to stone for playing the ancient game of hurling on a Sunday. To the west is a pair of outlying upright stones standing close together, known as the Pipers. They're said to be the figures of two men who played tunes on a Sunday and suffered the same fate.

The 'solstice bench' is a clever counterpart to Stonehenge! Located on the other side of the world, at UOW: University of Wollongong, Australia, this bench is designed to track the solstice in a smart way. The circular shadows form straight lines only twice a year, on the summer and winter solstice.
