Traditional naked festival in Japan

Traditional naked festival in Japan

Thousands of men wearing only "fundoshi" undergarments jostle to touch a chosen "shin otoko" (holy man) during the traditional naked festival at Konomiya shrine in Inazawa, Aichi Prefecture, central Japan, on Feb. 3, 2023, hoping to ward off evil spirits. The event, involving close body contact, took place after a two-year COVID-19 hiatus.
