Jord in Japan

This topic is already covered extensively on the internet by foreigners living in Japan, so I won’t go into detail (simply google ‘Kanamara Matsuri’ or ‘Penis Festival Japan’). Basically the story goes that prositutes would pray at this shrine for protection from STDs. See the wikipedia entry, or just check out the photos and video below, I think they explain themselves

The crowd at the festival. I've yet to see as high a concentration of foreigners anywhere else in Japan.

Look closely...
