My Summer Holiday Memory in Yukata I wore a Yukata which is a traditional Japanese costume especially worn in summer. Yukata is a light-weight costume than Kimono. Japanese people usually like to wear Yukata for watching fireworks and going to summer festivals. There were not any special events around my neighbourhood today, however my mother and I wanted to wear Yukata in order to make a good memory together. We went outside to take pictures and have tea and cakes. As I do not often wear Yukata, I was struggling to wear it nicely. Wearing Yukata is not straightforward, therefore we need to learn and practise. Yukata can be seen as summer symbol in Japan. I am curious what people associate with summer in their own countries.
