This is where the mountain is lit on fire for Obon. This Japanese character (kanji), means "big". I can't really understand why they do this, even though it's been explained to me a few times...
A random shrine. They're everywhere... 
Eating Tako Yaki (like octopus bread balls, with dried dish flakes and "yaki" sauce) at the Kitano Market. Taki Yaki always burns your mouth, right off the grill.

All the yukata (casual kimono) photos and the mountain lit on fire, is a holiday called Obon. The deceased ancestors come back to visit and people pay respects to them.
