Uji Agata Fesival?

Hey everyone,

I'm planning my trip to Japan this May/June and will be staying in Kyoto for several days. Uji is one of my favorite towns in Japan, and i want to experience a festival.

I've read online about the June 5th Agata Festival and it looks interesting – do any of you have experience with this festival, and if so do you recommend going?

Thanks!
